Social media posts by Robredo supporters suggested Jessica Marie, or Aika, should be vying for the gubernatorial post so her mother could focus on her presidential bid.
“VP Leni Gerona Robredo for president. Aika for (Camarines Sur) governor,” Richard Arce, who hails from Naga City, wrote.
“Aika Robredo..Please run for governor in Camarines Sur. We support you 100
percent. We need new and decent young politician like you,” Rudz Dee Madrigal said.
“Naga City needs you, but the country needs you more,” another supporter said, referring to the elder Robredo.
They were commenting in a Facebook post by the vice president who shared a Manila Bulletin article about her eldest daughter carving her own path in public service.
