Willie Revillame: Kung nandaya ako, iwan n'yo ko

An emotional Willie Revillame shared his side about the Wilyonaryo scandal where it seems there is cheating or rigging of the jackpot prize.

The alleged pandaraya occured last August 20, wherein he 'accidentally' pulled the wrong number in a wheel that was supposed to have the winning number 2.

He addressed the Wowowee studio crowd, insisting he didn't cheat.

"Hindi po ako nandadaya." Willie stressed, "Kung naniniwala kayo na nandadaya ako, iwanan n'yo po ako, iwanan n'yo kami dito."

"Kahit may sakit ako, kahit kung ano-ano nararamdaman ko, e pinipilit kong tumayo para sa inyo."

He seemed unable to contain his feelings and blurted, "Sa mga taong may sakit, kayo lang iniisip ko, off-cam, kahit walang camera, ano ginagawa namin dito? Tumutulong pa rin kami!"

Willie proceeded to react about Joey De Leon's on-air ribbing about the latest issue in Wowowee. He sounded very irritated.

"Ikaw na ang bida, ikaw na ang number one, sa iyo na ang ratings, ikaw na! Sige, Eat Bulaga! na ang number one!" Willie cried out.

"Ako nagsimula ako sa Channel 7," Willie continued. "Ni wala akong sinabi ni isang salita na masama sa Channel 7...kaya malaki utang na loob ko sa Channel 7, diyan ako nagsimula. Sana Joey, katulad ko nagsisimula, katulad ko na humahanga sa iyo, ginagabayan mo."

His co-hosts Mariel Rodriguez and Valerie Concepcion stood beside him as the audience cheered. He also expressed apologies to ABS-CBN executives Gabby Lopez and CharoSantos Concio.

"Pasensya na ho kayo, hindi ko naman gusto, e. Sobra na ho, e. Sa inyong lahat, kung tatanggalin n'yo ako dito, tatanggapin ko po ‘yon. Pasensiya na po kayo, humihingi ako ng tawad sa inyo.

"Sasabihin ko po nang harapan, hindi po ako nandaya. Hindi ko po magagawang mandaya. Dahil lagi ko po iniisip ang kapakanan ninyo," Willie said to the audience.

He ended his on-air messages for Joey: "Ganunpaman, Mr. Joey de Leon, nirerespeto pa rin kita. Huwag mong hintayin na mawala respeto ko."
