IGINIIT ni Sen. Grace Poe na siya ay Pilipino matapos namang pormal nang ihain ang kaso para siya patalsikin sa Senado dahil sa isyu ng kanyang citizenship.
“I am actually relieved that a petition has been filed so that I can answer the questions on my citizenship and residency. It is an opportunity for the truth to come out and for this issue to be resolved once and for all,” sabi ni Poe.
Ito’y matapos namang ihain ni Rizalito David ang petisyon sa Senate Electoral Tribunal (SET) kung saan sinabing niya na “foundling” si Poe at hindi siya “natural-born citizen.“
I assure the 20 million plus fellow Filipinos who voted for me, as well as the rest of the country, that their confidence in me is not misplaced. I remain truthful to our countrymen. I am a Filipino by birth, abode and choice,” giit ni Poe.
Ayon kay Poe, desperado na ang kanyang mga kritiko para harangin ang kanyang posibleng pagtakbo sa 2016 presidential polls.
