My husband has been using fentanyl for almost 17 years for spinal pain but still mentally alert and able aside from the pain.

This man, BBM considering he’s well educated, he should do more research about fentanyl. While he won’t admit that he’s been addicted to cocaine, people can see some remarkable evidence that he’s ! He should step down before the country will be impoverished by his goons and thieves.

I remember he said that he is using Fentanyl for pain not for tripping . Its medical use.

He's not answering the accusations. Could be true?

[dhengcastor]

He’s taking a prescribed Fentanyl patch due to back problems. Not the fentanyl that is taken orally for recreation purposes.

In fairness to digong..nawala lahat ang utang ng mga farmers sa NIA which i never see to bbm..he is only good in speech but very poor in solving crimes.

PBBM's voice is trembling as if he is scared of his predecessor. 😅 I think he should show to the people that he is the incumbent President and not somebody else.

[cubilleonardo]

Bakit ngiwi na naman ang bibig ni PBBM?

[Myrna-kw]

Fentanyl is prescribed by Doc, polvoron can buy everywhere 😂

[spike]

PRRD is the Best, Finest, Exceptional and The GOAT President with unmatched achievements, accomplishments, excellence, and the Highest Approval rating in the Philippine History!!!

[ginaelpedes]

Addicted na kung ganun kasi 5-6;yrs. Ago pa ng take . PBBM IS RIGHT.
