ROXAS City, Capiz: THE tandem of Senators Grace Poe and Francis Escudero has taken a swipe at Liberal Party (LP) standard-bearer Manuel “Mar” Roxas 2nd for his failure to maximize the potential of his home province, Capiz, despite being “close” to three presidents of the country.

Escudero on Wednesday said the province is very lucky to have a son like Roxas, who has been allied with the current and previous administrations, because the province could benefit a lot from it.
