MANILA, Philippines – Celebrities took to social media to express their thoughts on presidential candidate Davao City mayor Rodrigo Duterte, after vice presidential candidate Antonio Trillanes IV alleged that Duterte had an undeclared bank account with Bank of the Philippine Islands with P211 million that was not included in his Statement of Assets and Liabilities (SALN).

In an interview with Pep, Cesar Montano, who is seeking a congressional seat under the party list Aangat Tayo said: Naiintindihan ko siya kung kailangan niyang magbayad ng bills niya every month, kaya niya ginagawa ‘yan para pagkakitaan.

(I understand that he needs to pay bills every month, that's why he's doing it, to earn money.)

“Ano ba siya, as Vice President? Ano ba ang rating niya, wala na, e. (What is he as Vice President? What is his rating? Nothing.)

“Pinapakinabangan na lang siya ng administrasyon.” (The administration is just using him.)

In the same interview, Montano said that it would be better if the senator just kept quiet about this issue.

Meanwhile, TV host Arnell Ignacio posted two videos of him outside a BPI branch, telling Trillanes to issue an affidavit regarding about the bank account.

 “Kasi sabi mo may account dito ang aming tatay na si Digong. (You said our father figure Digong has a bank account here.)

Salamat naman at itinuro mo, kasi tutulong na kami, dito namin ilalagay ang tulong namin dahil kawawa naman yung tao. (Thank you and pointed out because we're going to him and this is where we will deposit the money because he looks really tired.)

Hindi na nga nakakabili ng T-shirt, tatatlo lang yata ang damit, hindi pa napaplantsa. ( he could not buy a T-shirt, I think he only has few clothes and it doesn't even get ironed.)

“Anyway, maganda naman yung sinasabi mo na meron kang mga imbestigasyon, pero sana mag-issue ka ng affidavit para legal ang lahat. (It's good that you said there is an investigation but I hope you issue an affidavit so it's all legal.)

Hindi yung kung ano lang ang sabihin mo, gusto mo paniwalaan na namin. (It's not just about saying anything, then you just want us to believe you.)

“Ginagawa mo naman kaming masyadong tanga. Mag-issue ka ng affidavit para legal lahat, okay? (You're making us look like fools. Issue an affidavit that's legal okay?)

“Anyway Mayor, nag-deposito ako sa 'yo ng P1,000 ha? Ipambili mo ng pagkain o kaya damit ha? (Anyway Mayor, I'm depositing P1,000 okay? Use it to buy food or clothes okay?)

“Mr. Trillanes, kapag totoo yung sinabi mo, sisingilin ko si Mayor ng ipinagpagawa ko ng T-shirt at saka ng relos. (Mr. Trillanes, if everything you said is true, I'll ask Mayor for the money I used to make for this T-shirt and watch.)

Ikaw, kung gusto mo rin, maganda e bigyan kita, dalhan kita sa Senado, ha? Sige, wag kang masyadong maingay, ang daldal mo.” 

(If you want one it's nice, I can give you, I can bring it to you in the Senate okay? So please don't be noisy, you're so talkative.)

Aiza Seguerra posted the same photo with the caption: "Ano na Trillanes? San na affidavit mo? Bilis na!"

(So Trillanes, where the affidavit? Do it now quickly!) 

Aiza's wife Liza Diño meanwhile posted on Facebook:  "Hay, yung mga ibang "disenteng" supporters nagpipiyesta, akala mo nanalo sa lotto. Wagas makapost! Sa wall ko pa eh hindi ko naman kilala. (Those "decent" supporters jumping for joy who thought they won the lotto. Wow, to post on my wall considering I don't know them.)

"Eh kaso yung "beacon of hope" niyo kung makademand wala na nga sa lugar, dinaan pa sa media. Dada ng dada wala naman palang affidavit. Tsk tsk! (Your "beacon of hope" who makes demands though it's not appropriate, went through the media. All he does is talk and talk but he has no affidavit.)

"O ayan na inamin na, may bank account nga. Kaso mukhang pagkatapos nito, makukulong ka na, magwiwithdraw ka pa. Tsk tsk." (So there he admitted his bank account. But it seems after this, you'll be in jail, you have to withdraw money.)

Meanwhile, celebrity supporters of other candidates, particularly of Mar Roxas, who runs on a platform of anti-corruption, criticized Duterte.

Jim Paredes wrote: "Duterte is a fraud. 41 houses. Billions in accounts. Liar. Collecting campaign funds from the poor. SWITCH TO MAR."

On Friday April 29, Trillanes challenged Duterte to sign a bank secrecy waiver, after he alleged that Duterte had a secret account with BPI amounting to P211-million. 

"Mayor Duterte, tigilan mo na ang drama. 'Wag kang magtago sa mga alipores mo at nag-aala Binay ka na (Mayor Duterte, stop the drama. Don't hide behind your minions, you're starting to act like Binay)," the senator alleged in an interview with dzMM's Ted Failon.

Duterte on the other hand said that all of Trillanes' accusations were "garbage," but told reporters that he has instructed his lawyer to be present on Monday, May 2 when his bank account is opened. 

BPI has already issued a statement, saying that there has not been a breach in client confidentiality regarding the matter. –Rappler.com
