Comedian Pokwang made a rare public apology on social media several days after she accused her former partner, Lee O’Brian, of having a ‘padrino’ to prevent him from being deported.
It can be recalled that Pokwang couldn’t hide her disappointment on social media after she discovered that Lee was still in the country despite the deportation order imposed by BI against the American actor.
“Hindi ko alam ano pa hinihintay bakit nandito payang animal nayan?” said Pokwang.
“May padrino daw e teka lang ha! Wag ganon! Baka ipa tulfo ko sya kapag ganyan!” she also said.
However, Pokwang quickly changed her tune and quickly apologized for her words.
She recognized that Lee filed a Motion for Reconsideration to appeal the decision against him.
“Aaminin ko na napakahirap ang pinagdadaanan kong ito – may mga araw na napapangunahan ako ng inis at galit. Frustrated ako dahil gusto ko nang mapaalis si Lee sa ating bansa sa lalong madaling panahon,” she said.
“Naging mabigat ang aking saloobin mula ng nagkaproblema kami ni Lee, at nagpatuloy pa ito kahit nanalo na kami sa deportation case laban sa kanya. Dahil na din siguro ito sa limitasyon ko bilang tao, bilang solo parent na nagtataguyod sa aking pamilya. Valid man itong aking mga nararamdaman, hindi ito sapat na dahilan para makapagsabi ako ng mga masakit at walang basehan na bagay sa aking kapwa, partikular sa ating mga kasahaman sa BI,” she added.
As of writing, Lee has yet to respond to the accusations made by Pokwang.
