Bongbong donated kidney to his father

Ferdinand 'Bongbong' Marcos, Ilocos Norte Governor has admitted having donated one of his kidneys to his father, former dictator Ferdinand Marcos in 1983.

Bongbong in a TV interview said, "Yes, in 1983 he needed a kidney and I was a good match."

Congresswoman Imee Marcos said, "That was probably the worst day of my mother's life. Two of the people she loved the most were in the operating-room."

Many of those who gave this kind of information about the health of the former dictator 16 years ago, would have landed in jail in the past.

A kidney specialist was reportedly killed after he hinted the Marcos kidney transplant took place at the presidential palace, at a time when he was besieged by protest rallies.
