Go tells Trillanes: I will take you to Satan
Firing back at former Senator Antonio Trillanes IV, Senator Bong Go said he is not afraid to face him and would even take him to his boss, who is Satan.
“Pupuntahan kita, sasamahan kita, ihahatid kita sa amo mo naman. Ang amo mo si Satanas. Sasamahan kita kahit saan,” Go said on Wednesday.
Go, President Rodrigo Duterte's closest aide, made the retort after Trillanes said the "bullies" in the administration would all scurry away when the president is no longer in power.
"Pagbaba nitong mga ito sa pwesto, 'yang mga pasiga-siga na 'yan, magtatakbuhan 'yan," Trillanes said in an earlier interview.
Go said they would not hide when Duterte's term end.
“Pagdating ng panahon, pagbaba ng amo ko, hindi ako magtatago pero magpapa-injection kami ni Pangulo ng anti-rabies baka makagat kami ng asong ulol. Hindi ako tulad sa’yo na magtatago dito sa Senado,” he said, referring to Trillanes’ holing up in the Senate when Duterte said his amnesty was void.
He also urged Trillanes to seek a Senate post in 2022.
“Magkita tayo dito tumakbo ka sa 2022. Hanggang 2025 pa naman ako so mag-aabot pa tayo dito. Kapag nakikita ko ang litrato mo dyan sa gallery natatakot ako baka kagatin mo ako, rabies,” he said.
The senator said Trillanes is the real "Bikoy" and was the one behind the video linking Duterte to illegal drugs.
“Alam mo, Trillanes, ang totoong Bikoy si Sonny boy. Ikaw ang tutuong Bikoy, sa totoo lang,” Go said referring to the nickname of Trillanes.
He said it was Trillanes who financed the ‘Ang Totoong Narcolist’ video which linked President Rodrigo Duterte’s family to illegal drugs.
Peter Joemel Advincula earlier claimed to be the narrator behind the video.
“Ang dumi mo. Saan kukuha si Advincula ng pambayad, professional video lalabas, sisirain n’yo. Pinahubad mo ako dalawang beses, paninira. Parang gusto mo akong kulayan ng itim, kami kukulayan ng itim para ikaw ang pumuti. Style mo ‘yan,” Go said.
The former senator has repeatedly denied any hand in the video and Advincula.
On Tuesday, Trillanes returned to the country after a series of engagements abroad.
He went to the Quezon City Metropolitan Trial Court to post P10,000 bail for a conspiracy to commit sedition case government prosecutors filed against him and 10 others in connection with the ‘Ang Totoong Narcolist’ video.
Trillanes is a staunch critic of Duterte. He has repeatedly challenged Duterte and his family to sign a waiver allowing the opening for scrutiny of their bank accounts.
In 2016, Trillanes accused Duterte of having billions of pesos in bank accounts. —LDF, GMA News
