Singer-Actress Agot Isidro once again set the online world abuzz after requesting GMA Network’s newscast have a troll fact check.
The troll was an edited photo of 24 Oras wherein it highlighted a report regarding Jinkee Pacquiao supposedly buying Agot Isidro to be a maid.
She shared this on Twitter and captioned, “Pa fact check naman @24OrasGMA. Mga trolls nga naman. 🙄.”

There was also an edited photo where Jinkee, together with her daughters, could be seen riding a carabao pulled by a cart. This was a sarcastic reaction to Agot’s claim stating that instead of riding those luxurious bicycles the Pacquiao family would just ride a carabao for them to be ‘maka-masa’.

It can be recalled that Jinkee and Agot trended online when the latter called out for a ‘sensitivity’ issue after the former posted her luxury bikes of Louis Vuitton and Hermès on social media amid the COVID-19 pandemic.
Alam namin na marami kayong pera. At kung ano ang gusto ninyong gawin sa pera na yun, wala kaming pakialam.
Pero marami rin ang walang trabaho at nagkukumahog humanap ng pera para may pakain sa kanilang pamilya. Puede ba, konting sensitivity man lang?#nouveau https://t.co/ABCmnHdnyx

This provoked Jinkee’s camp to respond, stressing that what Jinkee does with their family’s hard-earned money is none of anyone’s business.
“The Pacquiaos have worked hard over the past decades to achieve their current standing in society, and despite their status, they have remained humble, low-key, and generous to whoever asks for their help. Their fervent desire to serve their countrymen continues to inspire them to pursue higher education and excel in their public service endeavors.”

Agot in reply clarified her comment stating that sensitivity is not equal to accountability.
sinabi ko naman na wala akong pakialam kung saan ginastos ang kaperahan. i'm sure marami na rin ang natulungan. ang sa akin lang, kailangan ba namin makita yan, sa gitna nang paghihirap na dinaranas ng nakararami?
sensitivity ≠ accountability
iba po yun.ktnxbye

Mam @agot_isidro you should run for president in 2022. It's okay if you don't want to. I know you will give your support to someone that will do some major damage control.

The Pacquiao family has been listed as one of the Philippines’ rich families.
Manny Pacquiao’s boxing career made him the highest-paid athlete around the world. Aside from his salary and winnings, it was reported that Pacquiao has over 103 properties in the form of buildings, houses, land, and others not mentioned in the Philippines. He even owns a real estate in Los Angeles where he stays and trains before his matches.
