Meanwhile, his expressiveness about political matters came after realizing that he has the right to voice his opinions.
“For me kasi, I’m just exercising my right to voice out my opinion. Yun naman ang okay sa democracy ‘di ba? Everyone has the right to say something, express their opinion,” Ejercito said during an exclusive interview with LH.
