Sen. Vicente Sotto III is not apologizing for wearing an Arab attire during Halloween presentation of Eat Bulaga! Last Saturday, October 31. “Nothing to apologize for there are many Arabs who liked it, why will we apologize for something they like” Sotto said.

Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao or ARMM. Gov. Mujib Hataman demanded an apology from Sotto and Joey de Leon, who was also dressed as a Muslim saying they offended the Muslim Community. Sotto said he had worn the Arab attire in the show for the past 15years but had not been criticized for it.

He expressed concern why Hataman is making a big fuss about it now. He also said that “It because Halloween it doesn’t mean to scare people. Then they don’t know what All Saints Day and the origin of Halloween is all about. I have many Arab friends and they are surprised at the misplaced sensitivities of some people.”
