Cocoy Dayao, the Yellowtard Coward Who Didn't Show-up During the FAKE NEWS Senate Hearing ~Share
Where in the world is Edward Angelo “Cocoy” Dayao and why didn't he show up at the Senate hearing about his Fake News?
While Mocha Uson and RJ Nieto showed, Edward Angelo “Cocoy” Dayao was a no-show.
“Cocoy” Dayao used to be so brave in attacking President Rody Duterte and his supporters while he hid in anonymity. Today, now that the coward has been exposed, he continues to hide.
The difference is that from Silent No More, he has become Silent Na Ako.
Why Dayao did not show-up during the Senate hearing is what piqued my curiosity. Was his absence in the Senate hearing voluntary or advised? It is obvious that his absence was a sign of fear, if so, what is he afraid of?
Kudos to Mocha and RJ Nieto
Mocha Uson and RJ Nieto know how cruel the questions can be during Senate hearings, yet both of them braved the possible humiliation. Cocoy Dayao, on the other hand, was a no-show and his nonappearance reinforces the idea that "Yellow" is the color of a coward.
Edward Angelo “Cocoy” Dayao who operates the controversial Silent No More (SNM) PH blog was a former consultant for the Presidential Communications Operations Office (PCOO) during the Aquino administration.
Silent No More PH, is a blog that has been described in reports as aligned with the Liberal Party, is the same site that published an article calling seven senators “Malacanang Dogs” for not signing a resolution urging the government to end the killings of minors.
Blogger RJ Nieto, who runs the Thinking Pinoy blog, claimed during a Senate hearing on fake news, that the person behind the SNM blog is former PCOO web security consultant Edward Angelo “Cocoy” Dayao.
Dayao was a no-show in the Senate hearing despite being invited by the Senate Committee on Public Information and Mass Media chaired by Senator Grace Poe. Nieto, who admitted being “aligned” with the Duterte administration, first made the expose in a blog post ”#CocoyGate: Senator Sotto, here's the guy you're looking for” published on September 29.
According to Nieto, Dayao also run at least 20 other websites which were mostly anti-Duterte and previously worked as political communications head for Senators Francis Pangilinan and Paolo Benigno Aquino IV.
Nieto said he Is willing to give the Senate committee a list of information about Dayao and other people who ran the SNM site which was freely available online but sought to name them in an executive session.
“I’m willing to provide information if you’re going to give me blanket immunity because I don’t want to be held liable for the information that may be disclosed,” Nieto told the committee.
Nieto, meanwhile, appealed the Senate to craft legislation on the right to reply. “Ang gusto ko lang iplaglaban i-legislate natin ang right of reply (I just want to fight for the right of reply),” Nieto said.
Poe said that the committee would take Nieto’s suggestion into consideration.
Meanwhile, former Presidential spokesperson and deputy spokesperson during the Aquino administration, lawyers Edwin Lacierda and Abigail Valte, respectively, denied ever having hired Dayao to work for them at the Office of the Presidential Spokesperson (OPS).
“The OPS has never hired Cocoy Dayao,” Lacierda said pointing out that the OPS is a separate agency from the PCOO which was then run by Secretary Herminio Coloma Jr.
Lacierda also denied that he was behind the Malacanang Dogs article but could not remember if he joined the SNM group on social media. Valte said that she did not contribute or own the blog.
