During a press briefing, Roque was grilled by reporters with regards to the President questioning the "moral ascendancy" of the said mayor.
“Hindi ko alam bakit nilalabas mo ang pangalan ni Isko Moreno. Hindi ko alam na siya ang nakapose roon," said Roque.
He was then asked how former-entertainer Mocha Uson's appointment as PCOO's assistant secretary runs counter with the call of the President for moral ascendancy.
Roque answered:
"Ang ini-issue lang niya is ano ang moral ascendancy nitong taong ‘to para mamuno ‘no. Si Mocha Uson, well, na-appoint po iyan pero hindi ko naman po alam kung ano talaga nakaraan ni Mocha Uson ‘no sa totoo lang po ‘no. Ang sinasabi ko lang is the President gave her a second chance and I think she took advantage of the second chance," said Roque.
