VP Leni Robredo, sa heckling incident laban kay Jillian: "unfortunate but isolated incident"

The footage did not show where the voice came from, though it can clearly be heard that the person is complaining about the group of Jillian making the market pathways difficult to navigate.

“Grabe naman kayo, sinasarahan ninyo yung daanan. Public market ito,” the voice can be heard saying.

The unidentified voice also mentioned about a candidate, presumably referring to VP Leni, and something about the election.

“Wag mo akong sungit-sungitan ng ganyan! Kayo ang dayuhan dito, kami Igorot kami,” the voice continued.

Jillian’s group left the place while the voice continued to shout, though at that point, the voice has already become inaudible.

In a statement released by the Baguio City chapter of the Robredo People’s Council which was posted on their official FB page, it called the incident unacceptable, alleging that it was a coordinated operation.

Jillian Robredo is the youngest daughter of Vice President Leni Robredo. Her other two siblings are Aika and Patricia Robredo. Jillian is a graduate of Philippine Science High School and is currently pursuing a college degree at a university abroad with a full scholarship.

Recently, Jillian took to Instagram and posted a photo of her two older sisters. In the caption, one could see that her older sisters were trying to make "lambing." "Baka namna gusto mo kami i-story," said her sisters. Thus, the bunso in the family immediately posted a photo of her two sisters in her IG Stories and said, "ök I gotchu."

Early this month, a video clip of Vice President Leni Robredo in one of her recent mini-rallies where a rally participant carrying a placard inquiring about Jillian went viral. The clip was shared by a Twitter user, and what tickled many netizens was when VP Leni read one of the placards. It was asking the presidential aspirant if her youngest daughter, Jillian, is single. The VP made a witty reply and netizens clearly enjoyed the manner by which she responded to the one asking.
