Tarlac City government on Monday denied that it disrespected the memory of the late senator Benigno “Ninoy” Aquino Jr. after his monument was blocked during a campaign rally of the Marcos-Duterte tandem over the weekend.
“The City Government of Tarlac vehemently denies any intention to disrespect the memory of the late Benigno S. Aquino Jr.,” said lawyer Numer Lobo, city administrator, in a statement.
“However, due may be to the influx of people attending the mentioned rally, owing to the fact that the heat of the sun dictates the need for a shelter, the same tent was inadvertently moved towards the monument, which was unintentional,” Lobo said.
