Mocha sinagot paninita ng Comelec sa inireklamong campaign jingle

George Erwin Garcia at Mocha Uson

HINDI naman nagmatigas ang singer-dancer na si Mocha Uson sa paninita ng Commission on Elections (Comelec) sa kanyang controversial campaign jingle na “Cookie ni Mocha.”

Sinagot ng vlogger at kumakandidatong konsehal ng Maynila ang letter sa kanya ng Task Force on Safeguarding Against Fear and Exclusion in Elections (TASK FORCE SAFE) na nagsasabing may mali sa paggamit niya sa naturang campaign jingle.

Pinansin at kinuwestiyon ng Comelec ang pagkakaroon ng “double meaning” ng naturang kanta tulad din ng naging reaksyon ng maraming netizens.

Sabi ng Comelec na pinamumunuan ni Chairman George Erwin Garcia, naiintindihan nila ang  kagustuhan ni Mocha na magetsing ang atensyon ng publiko, ngunit maliwanag na meron daw itong “sexually suggestive elements.”

Sa kanyang Facebook page, sinagot ni Mocha ang natanggap na paalala, “I appreciate the feedback from the Commission and the Task Force on Safeguarding Against Fear & Exclusion in Elections (Task Force SAFE).

“I fully recognize the importance of maintaining a respectful, inclusive, and age-appropriate tone in all campaign communications,” ang pahayag ni Mocha.

Aniya pa, “In view of the issues raised, I have instructed my campaign team to immediately halt the use of the materials in question.

“We are currently reviewing all our content to ensure that it aligns with the standards of decency and appropriateness expected in public discourse and electoral engagement,” ang pahayag pa ng singer.

Dagdag pang mensahe ni Mocha, “Please be assured of our continued commitment to promoting meaningful dialogue on governance, policy, and the future of our communities.

“We remain hopeful that this campaign can contribute positively to the democratic process and inspire broader participation,” ang sabi pa ni Mocha Uson na tumatakbo sa ilalim ng partido ni Isko Moreno.
