BEST ACTOR. A nurse who saw Joc-Joc Bolate clutching his chest, complaining of weakness, chest pains and sitting on a wheelchair at the NAIA upon his arrival commented, “Dili na tinuod. Morag ga acting ra na siya para dili ma-interview sa media.” Several mediamen who also saw video footages of the former Agriculture Undersecretary, massaging his chest, shaking his head and looking weak also weren’t convinced of the seriousness of Bolante’s condition. Several mediaman were heard saying, “Huh! Best actor na siya in a controversial category.”
MEDICAL FINDINGS. When medical findings from St. Luke’s Medical Center where Bolante underwent Electrocardiography, 2-D Echo, abdominal ultrasound and other diagnostic tests, came out as normal, the nurse who made the earlier assessment on Bolante’s condition said, “Da! Sakto gyud lagi ko. Acting ra to niya. Siguro nag anxiety attack ra to kay gidumog siya sa media.”
