DJ Chacha to ‘Bato’: Resign, apply as Duterte’s bodyguard instead
MANILA, Philippines – Radio jock Czarina Balba, popularly known as DJ Chacha, recently took a swipe at Senator Ronald “Bato” Dela Rosa suggesting he should just resign and apply as President Rodrigo Duterte’s bodyguard.
The radio jock was among those who criticized the senator and former police chief after he reaffirmed alliance to the President when asked of his stance on the franchise renewal of media giant ABS-CBN.
“I suggest mag-resign na dapat si Senator Bato sa pagiging senador at mag-apply na Bodyguard ng Presidente tutal naman ang loyalty niya ay sa Pangulo at hindi sa taong bayan,” the radio personality said in a tweet Tuesday.
(I suggest Senator Bato should resign and instead apply as the President’s bodyguard since his loyalty is with him and not to the nation.)
I suggest mag-resign na dapat si Senator Bato sa pagiging senador at mag-apply na Bodyguard ng Presidente tutal naman ang loyalty niya ay sa Pangulo at hindi sa taong bayan.

“Naniniwala akong mas mahal ni Bato ang Pangulo kaysa sa asawa niya. Nangako pa hanggang kamatayan! Taray! IBA. #itopoangbinotoniyo,” DJ Chacha said in a separate tweet.
(I believe Bato loves the President more than his wife. He even promised until death. This is who you voted for.)
Naniniwala akong mas mahal ni Bato ang Pangulo kaysa sa asawa niya. Nangako pa hanggang kamatayan! Taray! IBA. #itopoangbinotoniyo

Dela Rosa earlier said he would “live and die” with the President after he compared the 11,000 employees who will lose their jobs and the welfare of the nation on the issue of ABS-CBN’s franchise renewal.
Dela Rosa, however, said he is not blindly following the President and that he would make his decision on the matter later.
“Yan ang mahirap kapag mahilig kayong bumoto ng mga politikong PUPPET ang role sa gobyerno. Wag kang umasa na marunong silang tumayo at ipaglaban ang tama kase nagfufunction ang utak nila alinsunod sa pinuno nila,” DJ Chacha further said.
(That’s the issue when you vote for a politician who’s a puppet of the government. Don’t expect they can stand on their own and fight for what’s right because their brains function based on their leader.)
Yan ang mahirap kapag mahilig kayong bumoto ng mga politikong PUPPET ang role sa gobyerno. Wag kang umasa na marunong silang tumayo at ipaglaban ang tama kase nagfufunction ang utak nila alinsunod sa pinuno nila.

Meanwhile, Senate Public Services Committee chairman Senator Grace Poe said its inquiry on ABS-CBN’s franchise renewal will push through despite the Office of the Solicitor General’s (OSG) motion for issuance of gag order on the case.
