Ricky Carandang tackles 'midnight madness' in the Palace
MANILA, Philippines - President Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo remains controversial in her remaining days in the Malacañang Palace. The outgoing leader of the country is now under fire due to recent developments in her government.
This Tuesday (April 6), news anchor Ricky Carandang will unravel the mystery in the so-called “midnight madness” in the Palace on “The Correspondents.”
With the national elections fast approaching, people are wary about the happenings in the government which could affect it or even stop the polls from pushing through.
Recently, Lt. Gen. Delfin Bangit was appointed by Arroyo as the leader of the Armed Forces of the Philippines, a move which supposedly irked other generals. Now, Arroyo is said to be also pushing to appoint a new Supreme Court Chief Justice, which, according to Constitutional experts, is prohibited by the Constitution during an election period. .
Aside from midnight appointments, the government is also being hit for the Commission on Elections’ lack of preparation for the first nationwide automated election in the country. The power shortage in Mindanao is also seen as a threat to the integrity of the polls.
Join Ricky Carandang as he finds out if these issues are really part of a big plan to extend Arroyo’s term or are they just pure coincidences this Tuesday (Apr 6) on “The Correspondents,” after “Bandila” on ABS-CBN.

MAY ELECTION
MY FELLOW KABABAYANS: PLEASE BE VIGILANT! AS WE SEE THE ELECTION IS NEARING.. ALL OF A SUDDEN WE ARE SEEING WEIRD ACTIVITIES AND INCONSISTENCIES IN AND FROM THE CURRENT ADMINISTRATION. THIS IS VERY OBVIOUS AS WE SEE ABOUT THE FAST AND SUDDEN APPOINTMENTS OF NEW SUPREME COURT PARASITES AND LEECHES (NEW RECRUIT AND TRAIN PUPPET OF GLORIA ARROYO) THE JUSTICE DEPARTMENT AREA IS BEING MANIPULATED AND NEXT THING WE SEE, THE ELECTION MACHINE WILL BE MANIPULATED IN MAY. ARROYO AND HER PUPPETS ALL OF A SUDDEN WANTED THIS DONE UNDER HER TERMS EVEN THOUGH THERE IS ONLY A FEW DAYS AWAY BEFORE ELECTION AND TWO MONTHS TO GO BEFORE SHE LEAVE OFFICE. SHE IS ANTSY AND WANTED TO EXERCISE HER REMAINING POWER FULL FORCE IS SUCH A SHORT TIME BY APPOINTING NEW PEOPLE (BY HOOK OR BY CROOK). I AM SEEING SOMEONE WHO IS AFRAID AND WORRIED. SHE IS HIDING SOMETHING OR SHE HAVE SOME ODD ACTIVITIES AND ANOMALY THAT WE WONDER THAT IS CURRENTLY BOILING AND OR COOKING IN THE BACK BURNER OF THE PALACE OUTHOUSE KITCHEN. SHE IS AFRAID THAT SOMETHING IS GOING TO GET OUT OF PROPORTION AND SEEING THE EVIDENT NOW THAT VILLAROYO IS LOSING. PLUS, ANOTHER ODD THING HAPPENED WITH THE DROPPING OF THE CHARGES OF THE AMPATUAN CRIMINALS WHO IS HER OTHER PUPPETS SOUTH THAT WILL HELP HER GENERATE VILLAROYO'S VOTE AND GUARANTEED WIN IN THE MUSLIM POPULATED AREAS OF MAGUINDANAO. ARROYO HAS TO ACT QUICKLY AND TO START HER MANIPULATION STRATEGY NOW AND SHE MUST...SO NOT TO RUIN HER PLAN ALL ALONG AND TO SAVE HER ASS FOR THE DIRTY POLITICS AND THE PREDICAMENT SHE HAD CREATED.
SHE'S PROBABLY THINKING THESE PEOPLE SHE APPOINTED WOULD SAVE HER FROM DEATH ROW AND DEFEND HER BECAUSE THEY HAVE TO LOOK AN "UTANG NA LOOB" TO HER LIKE THE AMPATUANS.
HMMM........SOMETHING ODD JUST DID'T SET IN HERE.
WE ALL KNOW THAT SHE IS UP FOR SOMETHING... AND I AM AFRAID TO SAY THAT PEOPLE'S POWER WILL REPEAT AGAIN IN OUR BELOVED COUNTRY BECAUSE OF SO MUCH INJUSTICE WE HAD SUFFERED UNDER THE HANDS OF CORRUPT VILLAROYO.
I AM SEEING AS THERE IS GOING TO BE ANOTHER PEOPLE'S POWER AFTER THE ELECTION BECAUSE OF MASSIVE VOTE BUYING, ELECTION RIGGING, LEGITIMATE FRAUD WILL TAKE PLACE. THIS ELECTION WILL BE A FAILURE TO US ALL. POLITICIANS WHO ARE CRIMINALS, CROOKS, THIEVES, CORRUPTS, DISHONEST WILL TAKE IN PART OF THE MANIPULATION LEAD BUT NO OTHER THAN GLORIA ARROYO.
WHAT A PITY! WE CAN ONLY HOPE THAT THE INTERNATIONAL WATCHDOG OR SOME COUNTRIES WILL HELP MONITOR THE ELECTION AND INTERFERE!
