Former Ilocos Sur Governor Luis “Chavit” Singson on Friday denied any involvement in an alleged destabilization plot against the administration of President Ferdinand "Bongbong" Marcos Jr., saying the list circulating online is fabricated and politically motivated.

Speaking live in dzRH's Damdaming Bayan, Singson dismissed the alleged roster of individuals supposedly being monitored by the government.

“Gawa-gawa lang nila ito, panakot sa taumbayan. Nilabas na ito noon ng attack dog ‘yun ang bayaran. Ang naglabas nito ay bayaran noong una bago ilabas ni Mon Tulfo. Kaya nagtaka ako bakit niya pinatulan ito. At nilabas ulit at may mga comment pa,” he said.

This came after columnist Mon Tulfo posted a list of names allegedly involved in plotting to destabilize the current administration. Singson claimed that the list originated from an alleged “attack dog” paid by the government.

Singson appears twice on the alleged list — both as a supposed destabilizer and a financier, allegedly alongside Vice President Sara Duterte and Davao City Rep. Paolo “Pulong” Duterte.

Singson argued that the President himself bears responsibility for the ongoing political turmoil.

“Lahat ng tungkol sa destabilization, may kulang dito, si Marcos. Siya ang isa sa nagdedestabilisize dahil siya ang presidente. It is his command responsibility,” he said.

Singson stressed he barely knows most of the individuals tagged.

“Marami dito ang hindi ko kilala… Gawa-gawa lang ito. Hindi totoo. Ang kilala ko lang dito Mike Defensor. 2022 huli kong nakita… Noong eleksiyon ni BBM kami nagtrabaho tumulong sa kanya," she said. “Rodante Marcoleta, after election hindi ko na nakita."

“Miski si Vice President Sara Duterte, hindi na kami nagkikita," he added

When asked whether he fears for his safety and whether he could be jailed in connection with the alleged destabilization against the Marcos administration.

“Wala naman kaming ginagawa. Ikulong nila ako, patayin nila ako. ’Pag pinatay ako, dadaan sila sa tatlo — taumbayan, mga Ilocano, Panginoong Diyos.”

Meanwhile, Singson admitted to receiving threats.

“Meron, pero I believe in destiny. ’Yun ang destiny ko," he said. “Mas gusto ko pa mamatay dito kaysa pabayaan ang mga tao. Kaya tutulong at tutulong ako maski na mawala ang aking lahat ng naipon ko."

On the three-day Iglesia ni Cristo (INC) rally: 'Hindi na pwede lokohin ang taumbayan'

Singson insisted there is no reason for Filipinos to be afraid, especially in the INC-led protest from November 16 to 18.

“Hindi dapat matakot ang ating mga kababayan. Ito na ang pinakamalaking anomalya, kung payagan natin itong makalusot. Makalusot dito ang masterminds, makinabang, talagang wala nang kwenta ang Pilipinas. Binabatikos na tayo ng ibang bansa, nakakahiya na tayo," Singson noted.

“Doon mo makikita na puno ang taumbayan. Hindi na pwedeng lokohin ang taumbayan. Hindi na mapagtakpan ang nangyari sa ating bansa. Ito na ang pinakamalaking anomalya sa ating bansa — isa lang ito, halos lahat ng departamento mayroong graft and corruption.”

He also asserted that responsibility for these issues ultimately falls on the President, emphasizing that as chief executive and commander-in-chief, it is under his command and responsibility. Singson openly questioned the sincerity of Marcos’ recent pronouncements on anomalies in flood control projects.
