Aquino, Arroyo online fight through Twitter (Updated via Storify)
What a way to hear how two of the most powerful personality in the Philippines meddle with each other - through the popular social media platform - Twitter.
Dubbed as an 'online catfight', Aquino's staunch ally House Deputy Minority leader Milagros Magsaysay and President Noynoy Aquino's spokeperson Abigail Valte responded to each other's remarks defending their superiors.
Here's a snapshot of what happened with their online debate. Who says Twitter is boring?
Tweet of @mitosmagsaysay “After one year in office, we are being run on auto pilot. Question is who is at the controls?”
Tweet of @Abi_Valte “Can’t be blaming others (for) your incompetence forever. Time to own up (to your) shortcomings. Act positively on (them), and move on,”
Pnoy's spokesperson added.
Tweet of @Abi_valte We failed to build on their gains? Please let us know who 'gained' in those 9 years other than yourself and your favored few.

The Twitter war apparently erupted upon Gloria Arroyo's barrage of disappointment towards Pnoy's lack of competence leading to economic downturns. Speaking in public while suffering on a 'pinched nerve' and looking awkwardly funny with a neck brace on TV, Arroyo remarked how the current administration has failed to continue the momentum of her supposed economic gains left when she turned-over the government to her successor. The cold, stormy Friday turned out to be a heated avenue of verbal melee.
Tweet of @mitosmagsaysay: "They had one year to prepare , what happened? Pnoy didn't attend d Nat Disaster Council mtg again. Maybe, he just isn't interested ."
Tweet of @Abi_Valte: "Nothing left at home:did you know that there was no flood control program in place?MMDA Chairman Tolentino looked for it everywhere!"
***
However, a sigh of relief was felt as soon as Abigail Valte remarked that it was just a casual discussion
Tweet of @Abi_Valte "@IanEsguerra @mitosmagsaysay no catfight here, just a discussion. We're ladies, after all :-)"
The online catfight lasted for almost two hours, but it ended with a sweet tweet from both ladies.
Tweet of @Abi_Valte "@mitosmagsaysay agree on that point. Hala you are at the airport maam? Travel safely po!"
Tweet of @mitosmagsaysay "@Abi_Valte Thanks.. Until next time."

Good job ladies!
