Ogie Diaz pushes Bam Aquino–Risa Hontiveros tandem for 2028

TALENT manager and host Ogie Diaz is openly urging Senator Bam Aquino to run for president in the 2028 elections, with Senator Risa Hontiveros as his preferred vice-presidential running mate.

Diaz made the appeal after congratulating Aquino for championing the P1.38-trillion allocation for the education sector under the national budget.

With former Vice President and now Naga City Mayor Leni Robredo indicating she will no longer seek national office, Diaz said Aquino should consider entering the presidential race with Hontiveros beside him.

“Kung ayaw na ni Mayor Leni Gerona Robredo tumakbo, baka puwede si Bam. Tapos si Senator Risa Hontiveros ang kanyang running mate, ay nako, sama ako ng sampu diyan!” the content creator said.

Diaz added that the country needs leaders who love the nation, serve without enriching themselves, and do not treat public positions as a family business.

“’Yung kahit hindi maingay, pero ang accomplishments ang ‘maingay at nagmumura,” he added.
