Dahnil said the public had had enough of leaders pledging brighter economic future, thus he asked Sandiaga to better his skills and integrity as a leader to deal with real problems in the society.
Dahnil also dismissed suspicions that the visit was Sandiaga Uno's effort to canvass for the latter's vice presidential bid. He said throwing weight behind any presidential pair was not part of his organization's capacity.
