Broadcaster blasts Vice Ganda for joke on Pastor Quiboloy

-

A furious DZAR and Sonshine Media International Network (SMNI) broadcaster Mike Abe made a strong statement against Vice Ganda, following the It’s Showtime host’s “napakayabang” comment on the Kingdom of Jesus Christ founder and leader Pastor Apollo Quiboloy.

Vice Ganda went viral last Tuesday, November 5, after he made a joke out of Quiboloy’s claim that he was able to stop the earthquake that struck Mindanao by challenging him to put an end to the longest primetime TV series Ang Probinsiyano and the notorious EDSA traffic.

In the 10-minute video posted by the SMNI News Channel on YouTube, Abe called out Vice Ganda for “insulting” his personal friend, Pastor Quiboloy, on national TV.

The broadcaster admitted that he got hurt by Vice Ganda’s words and warned him not to do it again.

“Vice K…huwag mo ulit gagawin yan at baka makasalubong kita hindi ko alam kung anong gagawin ko sayo. Personal ho ito, wala silang kinalaman dito. Masakit ho, ako nasaktan eh,” said Abe on SMN News’ Usapin ng Bayan program.

While taking jabs at the It’s Showtime host, Abe said he felt disappointed that the Mindanao quake became a laughing matter on the noontime reality show.

“Si Vice Ganda… hindi ko naman maintindihan kung paano naging ‘Ganda’ ‘yun.Vice, baka siguro Vice lang. Vice K. Bahala na kayo kung ano yung K. Pero ang Vice Ganda, hindi naman maganda eh, lalo na yung sinabi. Lalo na yung pagtatawanan.”

On Vice’s sexual identity

He also criticized Vice Ganda’s sexual identity: “Pasalamat kayo… sana hindi ‘yan makasalubong ng mga taong nagagalit sa kanya, baka may paglagyan ‘yang mamang ‘yan.

“Mama naman ‘yan, hindi naman ho babae ‘yan, e.”

Abe expressed that he is just voicing his personal concern: “Trabaho lang po ito, ito ho, personal ko po ito, ha. Wala hong kinalaman itong programang ito, itong network na ito.”

Abe added that he is not a member of Quiboloy’s religious group, which has around seven million followers, but nonetheless, he has great respect for the pastor for his good heart.

“Grabe po ang pagrespeto ko kay Pastor Quiboloy. Nakakausap ko ‘yan, nakikita ko ‘yan dito at sa abroad nagkakasama po kami. Hindi po siya ganun. Lahat sa kanya, tulong. Lahat ho siya ay bigay, kahit hindi kilala, tinutulungan. Kahit hindi kilala, dinadamitan, pinakakain, pinag-aaral, kinakausap ‘pag may oras. Ganun po siya. Walang kayabang-yabang. Simpleng-simple lang. ‘Pag nagsalita simpleng-simple, ganun po siya, walang ho siyang yabang,” he said.

Calling MTRCB, ABS-CBN

Abe also called on MTRCB and ABS-CBN to take proper action and give Vice Ganda a lesson.

“Hindi po totoo yung sinabi ni Vice K na mayabang si Pastor, hindi ho totoo yun. Kaya sabi ko nga, ginawa po ng ABS-CBN, kayong mga taga-ABS, after money lang kayo. After rating lang kayo. Yan pong inyong talent na ‘yan, inyong pagsabihan ‘yan.”

“Sana po hindi na maulit. Sana po ang management ng ABS-CBN ay umaksiyon po kayo. Bakit niyo kinukunsinti yung ganyang klaseng mga lengguwahe? Bakit niyo kinukunsinti ang ganyang klase ng mga talent? Ano ba kayo, pera-pera lang?” he lamented.

He also pointed out that it is not right to insult someone on broadcast especially if you do not know him personally.

 “Huwag niyong iinsultuhin si Pastor dahil hindi niyo kilala ng personal ‘yan. Hindi niyo nakikita ‘yan, hindi niyo siguro nakatabi kahit minsan. At saka alam niyo, bawal na bawal po sa telebisyon ang mang-insulto ng kapwa kung hindi mo naman kilala.”

Respect Quiboloy’s beliefs

Abe also said that everyone should respect Quiboloy’s beliefs.

“Paano mo sasabihing mayabang yung mukha? Napakabait. Appointed son of God talaga ‘yan. Walang ginawa kundi tumulong sa tao. Ipinagdadasal tayo kahit hindi niyo alam.. Pati ikaw Vice K, ipinagdadasal ka, kasama ka niyan. Tapos iinsultuhin mo, sasabihin mong mayabang yung tao?”

“Yung paniniwala niya at sinasabi niya, irespeto mo, huwag niyong pagtawanan. Nakita ko kasi yung video, e, tawanan, palakpakan pa yung nasa audience eh. Hindi ko alam kung ano sila, bakit sila nagtatawa. Ang inyo ay negosyo.”

“Hindi lahat ng kalase ng patawa ay nakakatuwa. May mga patawang nang-iinsulto kayo. Huwag po ninyong gawin yun.”

The broadcaster went on to say: “Si Pastor Quiboloy po ay respetado ng napakaraming pulitiko dito sa ating bansa, maging sa abroad. Napakaraming negosyante dito sa ating bansa, respetado ‘yan. At sa buong mundo nirerespeto ‘yan. Meron siyang seven million member. ‘Tapos sasabihin mo, mayabang?”

As he went on his rant, the broadcaster couldn’t help but cuss at Vice, “P*****  i** k*!”

He ended: “Sana hindi na maulit yan. Napakaliit po ng industriya. Napakaliit ng mundo natin. Iisa lang naman ang buhay ng tao. Pantay-pantay lang ho ang tao. Pero may kanya-kanyang paniwala. Irespeto natin ang paniniwala ng kahit sino.”

“Huwag niyong laitin, ‘wag niyong pagtawanan at ‘wag mong pagsabihang mayabang ang isang taong hindi mo kilala.”
