President Duterte’s Birthday Wish as he Turns 77
PRESIDENT DUTERTE’S BIRTHDAY WISH – Malacañang revealed the wish of Pres. Rodrigo Roa Duterte ahead of his 77th birthday.
As the May 2022 Elections draw near, Pres. Rodrigo Roa Duterte is preparing for his exit as the country’s Chief Executive. Previously, he revealed that he has started packing and some of his things were already sent to Davao City.
According to the President, he’s excited to be the outgoing president and he even wants to invite the next president to the Palace. Before leaving his post, the President will be turning 77 years old.
Pres. Duterte is turning 77 years old today. Way ahead of the May 2022 Elections, Malacañang revealed Pres. Duterte’s birthday wish which is in line with the upcoming poll.
Based on a report on ABS-CBN News, Malacañag said that President Duterte’s birthday wish is to have a “clean, fair, and honest” May 2022 Elections as he values a peaceful power transfer as part of his legacy. According to acting presidential spokesman Martin Andanar, the President will have a “simple and quiet” birthday celebration in Davao City.
“We join all our countrymen in wishing our beloved President Rodrigo Roa Duterte a happy 77th birthday,” Andanar said.
There are 10 presidential candidates in the upcoming May 2022 Elections. Pres. Duterte has yet to endorse a presidential bet but his party, the PDP-Laban Cusi wing, previously announced their support to former Senator Bongbong Marcos Jr. who is running under Partido Federal ng Pilipinas.
Previously, Pres. Duterte has thrown tirades against Marcos Jr. tagging him as a “very weak leader”. The running-mate of the former Senator is presidential daughter and Davao City Mayor Sara Duterte-Carpio. She is hoping that her father will endorse her and Marcos Jr. as a tandem.
Mayor Sara is running under Lakas-CMD. She initially filed her candidacy for re-election as Davao City Mayor but withdrew it and run for vice president amid consistent calls from her supporters to take a national race.
