MANILA, Philippines — The call for Vice President and fellow presidential candidate Leni Robredo to withdraw was fair play, Aksyon Demokratiko standard-bearer Isko Moreno said Monday as he re-asserted his claim — so far unsubstantiated — that the VP and her campaign team have been telling him to quit the race.

 

In a statement sent to reporters, Moreno claimed his call for Robredo to withdraw is just a "fair" way to give her "a dose of her own medicine" as he pushed the false claim that her camp has been persistently intensifying calls for other candidates to withdraw "in the belief that it will make her win against Ferdinand Marcos Jr."

 

This comes after Moreno and other male presidential candidates lagging behind in the surveys held a joint press conference to urge Robredo, the only female candidate standing at second place, to withdraw.
