Governor Daniel R. Fernando experienced a sudden health issue during his speech, leaving many concerned. The incident occurred on the evening of Monday, September 11, 2023, following the People's Day activities.
A captured video from the event shows Governor Fernando struggling to speak and suddenly stopping, prompting Vice Governor Alex C. Castro to quickly offer assistance. Governor Fernando was subsequently taken for immediate medical attention.
Fortunately, Governor Fernando is currently resting and in stable condition, thanks to prompt medical intervention. His doctors attribute the incident to exhaustion and dehydration, as he worked to aid flood-affected residents in Bulacan following recent heavy rains.
