Pink group, Solid Leni Bicol Sorsogon (SLB), insists Chiz Escudero strongly supports Leni Robredo for her presidential bid.

Escudero is Governor of Sorsogon, now running for Senator with other senatorial candidates of Leni-Kiko team.

Ed Balasta, SLB Sorsogon campaign manager, feels the support of Escudero since day one.

“Sa umpisa ng laban ni Leni bilang presidente nakaalalay na sya sa amin. Suportado nya kami na bumuo ng iba’t ibang grupo ng volunteers bawat munisipyo, bawat barangay, bawat purok, bawat sektor ayon sa desinyo na SLB campaign plan,” says Balasta in his FB post.

Balasta might have reacted sharply over grapevine reports that Chiz Escudero did not openly, publicly declared that he is endorsing Leni in her presidential bid.

Such grapevine grievances have reached the attention of online media, Bicol Express News.

“Pero sa mga mahahalagang gawain ng laban na ito, nandyan sya sa amin na laging sumasaklolo. Hindi sya kaylan man humingi ng credito, dahil tulad namin BUONG PUSONG BOLUNTARYO ang kanyang tulong KAY LENI ROBREDO,” says Balasta in FB post.

He insists Escudeo is all way out in supporting Leni.

“Walang duda, suportado ng ating gobernador ang ating susunod na Presidente ng Republika ng Pilipinas mula umpisa hanggang dulo ng laban nating ito!”, he swears.
