Former Interior chief Mar Roxas has one wish when he turns 62 years old on May 13, which will be the Election Day; that Cebuanos would vote for him as well as other members of Otso Diretso.
In a campaign sortie at the Plaza Independencia in Cebu City
on Sunday, April 28, Roxas said it seems fate that his 62nd
birthday to fall on the same day as the midterm elections.
"Si Mar Roxas, 'pinanganak Mayo 13, 1957. Parang nasa
tadhana na, 'di ba? Puwede bang i-birthday [gift] 'nyo na sa akin ang inyong
boto? Pupuwede?" Roxas asked the people who attended the gathering.
"Eh papaano ang Otso Diretso, kasama ba sila? So
8 birthday [gifts] 'yan, puwede? Puwedeng-puwede” he added
The Cebu event
marks the second time that Otso Diretso slate was complete on the campaign trail
after Naga City last February.
Other Otso Diretso
candidates which make up the slate are; former Bangsamoro civic leader
Samira Gutoc, former Quezon Rep. Erin Tañada, former Solicitor General Florin
Hilbay, abogados Chel Diokno and Romulo Macalintal, and Magdalo party-list Rep.
Gary Alejano.
Among other members
of the Otso Diretso slate, Roxas is considered to be the most veteran.
