Rey Joseph Nieto of political blog Thinking Pinoy alleged that Roxas paid to get the hashtag "NasaanAngPangulo" (where is the president) to trend at the height of the Mamasapano clash, an issue that is still hurled against the Aquino administration more than two years later.Nieto, citing a source, said a certain Joyce Ramirez made the hashtag, which refers to resident Benigno "Noynoy" Aquino III and his perceived absence in the aftermath of the clash, a trending topic."The #NasaanAngPangulo campaign, based on the information that I got, is a campaign that's intended to pin down all the blame over the Mamasapano incident on former President Aquino apparently so that if Mar runs for the presidency he can be shielded from the bad PR," Nieto claimed.Roxas, whose department is supposed to have administrative control over the Philippine National Police, had not been briefed on the covert Special Action Force operation against international terrorists in Mamasapano, Maguindanao.He chose to stay on the Aquino Cabinet in the aftermath of the encounter between SAF and armed groups in the area that killed around 60 Filipinos. He also lost the elections.
