People's Champ Manny Pacquiao Is Not That Stupid

We may make fun of the way he speaks English and his seemingly lack of education but let's be honest here, Manny Pacquiao is not that stupid to link himself to a possible plot against his rivals in the political scene in Sarangani.

Why go through all that trouble of trying to kill his rivals when he can just pay people off with his millions in order to win - well he may not win but at least he's doing it above board . . . so to speak.

All we have is the speculation that the vehicles used in the attempted ambush of Glan town mayor Enrique Yap Jr. was linked to Manny's wife Jinky.

Until the police have fully investigated then it's nothing more than speculation. And there could be many explanations as to why those vehicles were there and if they are indeed related to Jinky.

After all they have a transportation business under Jinky's name so it may very well have been either borrowed, rented, or stolen.

And if you were going to ambush someone would you be as blatant as to use a vehicle that can potentially be linked back to you.

A prudent criminal would bring in a vehicle from out of town and use that so it won't be linked back even if seen.

And of course election paraphernalia supporting you in the vehicle is a no no.

Is Manny Pacquiao really that stupid? I don't think so and I doubt if he had anything to do with this.

It may very well be politically-motivated aimed at tainting his candidacy which has been gaining on his rival businessman Roy Chiongbian.

Let the investigation be done properly so we find out the truth. At the moment speculations are speculations and we all know in Philippine politics it's par for the course.
