DAVAO CITY – Former Special Assistant to the President Christopher Go laughed off a Tweet by the anti-Duterte group, GovPH (@AltGovPH), that he was on an Air Force chopper that supposedly crashed in Albay.

Go indeed visited Albay with President Duterte on Friday, where he distributed relief goods, particularly in Camarines Sur.

Responding to the tweet the anti-Duterte group made, Go said in jest: “Now, I am the ghost of Bong Go.”

A quick check of the image that GovPH used in its tweet, published at 7:51 a.m. Saturday, revealed that it was a screenshot of the November 22, 2018 chopper crash in Tarlac, which injured Coop-NATCCO Rep. Anthony Bravo and several others.

It was from an ABS-CBN report on the chopper crash involving Bravo. (PNA)
