Singer Mocha Uson denied Friday that she is clamoring for a government post, saying that she has no plan to join politics or seek public office.

Uson, a vocal supporter of President Rodrigo Duterte, said a person does not need a position in government to help the administration.

"Hindi ako nagla-lie low sa entertainment, tuloy-tuloy pa din. Pangalawa, wala akong balak pasukin ang politika," Uson said in an inteview with ABS-CBN News on Friday.

"Hindi naman kailangan ng posisyon or title para tumulong ka sa gobyerno o sa ating bansa, dapat mag-volunteer ka, voluntary, hindi mo kailangan ng posisyon," she said.

Uson also chided critics in social media, saying she is not seeking any position in government.

"Wala akong balak tumakbo at wala akong balak pasukin ang pulitika. Hindi po ako naghahangad ng anumang posisyon, government position. Yun nga ang sinasabi ko, yung mga bashers diyan kaysa magdadakdak kayo eh lumabas kayo ng bahay niyo at samahan niyo ako mag-volunteer sa Department of Social Welfare and Development centers kasi sila ay humingi ng tulong sa akin to boost volunteerism in social media to help our abandoned children and senior citizens sa mga DSWD centers, yun," she said.

Eyebrows were raised after Customs Commissioner Nicanor Faeldon told ABS-CBN News that he tapped singer and dancer Mocha Uson as a "social media consultant" at the bureau.

It even spawned a hashtag that poked fun at allegedly how easy it is to get a government position under the administration of President Rodrigo Duterte.

The BOC later denied Faeldon's statement to ABS-CBN News, following the social media backlash.

Uson also released a statement claiming that the President's critics maliciously used the reports to discredit the current government.

Mocha: Stop the bashing

In the interview, Uson admitted that Faeldon asked for her help to disseminate information about the bureau and act as a bridge where ordinary citizens can send their complaints about corrupt Customs men.

She said she got the offer when she interviewed the Customs commissioner.

"Ang totoo nito ganito 'yon, pumunta ako sa Burea of Customs. Kasi yun naman ang ginagawa ko, kino-kolekta ko yung mga hinaing, mga reklamo ng mga kababayan natin sa social media tapos lumalapit ako sa kinauukulan," she said.

"Recently ang in-interview ko ay si Commissioner Faeldon ng Bureau of Customs at inihatid ko 'yung mga hinaing ng ating kababayan sa kanya. At sinabi niya during the interview na kailangan niya ng tulong sa lahat ng sector ng lipunan lalo na ang social media, at inalok niya ako na kung pwede bang tulungan ko si Commissioner Faeldon at ang Bureau of Customs sa pag-disseminate ng information at maging tulay between sa mga kababayan natin at Bureau of Customs, maging parang sumbungan na din kung mayroon silang mga reklamo against nangingikil na Customs officials."

Uson reiterated she will help the Customs bureau but without any official position or salary.

"Walang position, walang sahod, walang official appointment, walang ganoon," she said.
