Let X be a smooth connected projective manifold, together with an snc orbifold divisor ∆, such that the pair (X, ∆) is log-canonical. If K X + ∆ is not pseudo-effective, we show, among other things, that any quotient of its orbifold cotangent bundle has a pseudo-effective determinant. This improves considerably our previous result [18], where generic positivity instead of pseudoeffectivity was obtained. One of the new ingredients in the proof is a version of the Bogomolov-McQuillan algebraicity criterion for holomorphic foliations whose minimal slope with respect to a movable class (instead of an ample complete intersection class) is positive.
