Maine Mendoza Defends Husband Arjo Atayde vs Discaya Accusations

YAYA DUB HAS resurrected not as a nanny this time, but as a wife of a politician.

Maine Mendoza (the famous actress who who played Yaya Dub in the iconic “kalye serye, a television series on the quotidian” opposite Alden Richards to complete the portmanteau AlDub) has lashed out against the accusations of Curlee Discaya Monday morning that her husband Arjo Atayde, the congressman of the 1st District of Quezon City, was one of the lawmakers who received percentages on flood control projects.

Maine initially warned in her social media spaces about the issue. “Teka lang muna…,” Mendoza opened her statements immediately after the congressional hearing was held at the Batasan Pambansa.

“Those are baseless accusations … Please refrain from throwing hate and personal attacks at him, including me and our family until facts come out.”

“Those are baseless accusations ” she added.

The “Eat Bulaga” hostess requested the public to halt its ire against Arjo before everything is biown out of proportions.

“Please refrain from throwing hate and personal attacks at him, including me and our family until facts come out,” quipped the actress. 

IT’S UNFAIR!

Maine Mendoza said that she is one with Atayde in facing up the issue.

“I am with my husband in this. Wala siyang ginagawang masama sa loob (He hasn’t done anything).

“He has been doing his best to serve the people of his district in Quezon City since the beginning,” she clarified. 

“I sincerely hope and pray that the people who are TRULY responisable will be held accountable and that innocent individuals are spared from this mess,” said Maine. “Napaka unfair (It’s very unfair),” exclaimed the actress.
