Connections from someone

Groundbreaking. Preparation for today’s visit of President Rodrigo Duterte to Cebu to lead the groundbreaking ceremony for the Cordova-Cebu City bridge hit a snag when a woman claimed that she has connections from “someone up high,” said an official privy to the coordination meetings and walkthroughs.

Flagged down. This official told The Ear informer that this woman claimed to have a connection to the Office of the President as she forced herself to join in yesterday’s walkthrough. But someone from “up high” flagged her down.
