I had no doubt from the very beginning that I will be acquitted in all the cases the Duterte regime has fabricated against me based on the merits and the strength of my innocence.

Today, a lot of young people voted for the first time. Me too. First time ko ulit bumoto nang malaya, after almost 7 years sa detention dahil sa mga gawa-gawang kaso na isinampa ng nakaraang administrasyon. Yung unang dalawang picture, 'yan yung huling beses akong bumoto

Five years too late but still appreciated. Sana makonsensya na rin lahat ng nasangkot sa gawa-gawang kaso laban sa akin. Patuloy po ang laban natin para sa katotohanan at hustisya. #HUSTISYA🖐🏻

Muli po akong nagpapasalamat sa lahat ng nagtiwala at sumuporta sa Team Leni-Kiko at sa buong Tropang Angat. I am one with VP Leni & Sen. Kiko in waiting for the final official count, and in praying for the future of our nation, no matter the outcome. Hanggang dulo, Laban lang!

It appears, after all, that justice will still be served, no matter how late. Five years too late. But indeed, Truth often bides its time. It patiently waits and is never vanquished. #Hustisya

Duterte and his minions used the whole might and abused the power of the government just to destroy and send me to prison. As their power comes to an end, so will their lies, and the truth shall finally set me free.
