#LeniAngatSaLahat was the worldwide number one trending topic on social media platform on Twitter as Vice President Leni Robredo faced TV host Boy Abunda in his series of presidential interviews.
#LetLeniSpeak and “VP Leni” were also among the top trending topics until Thursday, Jan. 27, morning.
Robredo was a guest on Abunda’s “2022 Presidential One-on-One Interviews” which was aired on Wednesday, Jan. 26.
The hashtag #LeniAngatSaLahat was tweeted more than 171,000 times as netizens praised Robredo for her answers on various issues, particularly on topics such as economic recovery, pandemic response, drug war, and the “political fast talk” segment where she called former Senator Ferdinand “Bongbong” Marcos Jr. a “liar.”
“VP Leni is ready. Can’t wait for her to be our president,” actor-model Elijah Canlas (@elijahcanlas_) said.
