Both joined the protest rally in front of the regional office of the Social Security System (SSS) in Bajada, Davao City to push congress to override the vetoed P2,000 pension hike increase on the last day of session. The Congress adjourned the session on Wednesday, February 2, without discussing the override. (Medel V. Hernani/davaotoday.com)
