00:00 I signed the resolution but that was already immaterial because they already have 14, they have already declared victory but at least on that part I'm happy because Senator Chisholm is a very magnanimous victor.
00:18 Even though he knew that he doesn't need my vote, still he convinced me to join the majority.
00:28 Why are you emotional?
00:31 Because I signed before the session started. I went in and when Migs greeted me, I couldn't help but cry.
00:48 For me, being a good soldier, what I want to say to Migs is, "Sorry boss, I failed to win the war for you because I am one of his trusted lieutenants."
01:04 His mission to me is to secure my party, PDP, to continue to support him. But still, as I have said, we have a discussion, the three of us,
01:18 Senator Bungo, Senator Tolentino, on majority rules. If it's three against one, it's obligatory to include one in the decision.
01:31 As I have said, I'm being a good soldier. I would like to convey the message to him that, "My commander, I'm so sorry, we lost the war. I failed to win the war for you."
01:50 Sir, are you crying?
01:54 Yes, that's why I'm crying. It's not that I'm upset, it's just that I'm ashamed of him because I failed to win the war for him.
02:10 Thank you.
