Bikoy: A boon or bane to Bong?

WHOEVER commissioned Peter Joemel Advincula, the self-confessed “Bikoy,” to come up with a bombshell has already perfected the purpose one week ahead of the midterm election.

When the National Bureau of Investigation clutched one Rodel Jayme followed by the grand entrance of Advincula to the circus, it brought our focus to the billiard table. Therein we saw Bikoy like a cue ball hitting Bong Go in the precise angle, in a calculated impact and at the right time, too, sending Bong to the sure hole for victory.

Few hours after the press conference at the Integrated Bar of the Philippines national headquarters, Kuya Bong stripped himself in public to demonstrate his innocence against Bikoy’s accusing finger. His removing of shirt in front of national televisions is not an ordinary waving of the beacon of truth and belying Bikoy’s allegation, but a naïve act of cooperation while somebody is pushing him to the extreme popularity. But we don’t know for sure whose hand is

driving the cue stick, the kinetics that pushed Bikoy.

Whoever he is, he must be one of the political geniuses of our time. His objective and ambition are to position dependable men in the upper circle.

He has the superb stratagem like a king that is willing to suffer his pawn and pride to win the game. After all, a golden belt is more precious than a golden name because a golden name can be easily regained when you own the golden belt.

Kuya Bong Go, as we all know, has served the President (mayor) for more than two decades. It is beyond question that his length in service vouches for his mastery of skills in politics--planning, management and decision-making--that Tatay Digong shared with him through actual hands-on experience. By mere eye contact with his master he can perform what his master’s look commands. Needless to elaborate further that Kuya Bong has acquired the brilliancy of Tatay Digong in a span of time.

Thanks to Bikoy’s humorous circus, Davao City, aside from producing a President and producing a House speaker, will soon produce another Senate president, if not a majority leader.

The matrix Secretary Panelo presented to the media is nothing but a mere optical toy in a symmetrical pattern of lines. True or not, no ordinary citizen is interested to dig further. Even the committee of Senator Lacson blatantly expressed its loss of appetite to investigate. With the matrix, Kuya Bong is already out from the issue and goes to the exit, bagging the grandiose “V” as in VICTORY on Monday, May 13.
