Vice President Leni Robredo has been passing up on thoughts about the 2022 elections, saying it would only get in the way of her service to the public. You know, if I’m looking at the presidency already in 2022, I won’t go to these places, because I will be wasting so much time and resources,” the Vice President said. So I think political ambition will mar the way I serve the people,” she added. Aquino eventually won the presidency, but Roxas lost to former Makati City Mayor Jejomar Binay, who was declared vice president. And then I was pushed for the vice presidency, with no money, almost nobody knew me in the start—but I won […] It was never in my ambition, not just to become Vice President,” she added.
