Tingcungco’s post read as “Since this weekend, we tried to get Ilocos Norte Gov. Imee Marcos’ comment on UP’s statement that there is no record of her graduation from UPD nor any honors or distinctions received; we asked her again this afternoon in Valenzuela.”
In the video, the governor and senate-hopeful can be seen being waited upon by reporters for a chance at an ambush interview. Once she appeared, she was bombarded by questions from right to left about the recent controversy surrounding the authenticity of her degree at the University of the Philippines, Diliman.

The questions however fell on deaf ears with Marcos opting to take limited pictures with her constituents.
Isidro herself is an alumna of the said state university, holding a bachelor’s degree in interior design.
