Manay Lolit said people should just let the president be as he is doing a lot of the country and deserved a comfortable break.

She also said that BBM’s use of the chopper to go to the event is befitting of his rank as the country’s leader.

“Natatawa ako sa reaction ng tao sa mga gumamit ng helicopter para manuod, especially ang First Couple,” she further said.

“Sa buhay at sa anuman bagay alam natin na may ranking. You get the amenities that you deserves according sa ranggo mo sa buhay,” the veteran showbiz columnist said in her post.

She then dismissed the bashings against the president, saying that it’s his right as the country’s leader.

“So what kung gumamit ng helicopter ang Presidente natin? Di ba karapatan niya iyon as our leader? We have to allow him to enjoy what his position is. Bakit gusto natin maging ordinaryong tao siya?” Lolit asked.

“Dapat lang na tanggapin natin na siya ang leader, so dapat iba ang comfort niya, iba ang maari niyang gawin para sa isang bagay. Kaya dapat lang na tigilan na natin ang mga walang wawa na complaints,” she added.

Manay Lolit then asked everyone not to add more pressure to the president, saying that she already pities him because he has developed a lot of wrinkles while in office.

“Sa sobra siguro pag iisip para sa bayan natin hindi na siya nakakatulog ng mahaba pag gabi. Kaya matuwa tayo na kahit paano may pahinga siya ng konti para manuod ng Coldplay,” Manay Lolit said.
