MANILA, Philippines — Vice President Leni Robredo stressed that her victory during the 2016 elections was clean and underscored that she was not after President Rodrigo Duterte’s job. Whenever they say that I’m a fake VP, I will repeat and you can see this in the records, our family does not have any history of cheating,” the vice president said in Filipino. “I don’t really have experience in cheating in elections, to steal from the nation’s coffers, and I haven’t committed any irregularity. Robredo is facing an electoral protest filed by former Sen. Ferdinand “Bongbong” Marcos Jr. who is alleging that vote-counting machines used during the 2016 polls were manipulated to favor the vice president. During the interview, Robredo also denied that she was aiming to replace Duterte as president.
