Bongbong Marcos has this answer to Rodrigo Duterte’s claim

President Bongbong Marcos reacted to former President Rodrigo Duterte’s accusation that he is a drug addict.

On Sunday, during his speech at the prayer rally in Davao City, PRRD said that the Philippines has a drug addict president. He claimed that PBBM is “bangag.” This accusation from the former President is not new.

Back in 2022, during the campaign season, Duterte said that one of the candidates did illegal drugs. In line with this issue, Marcos released his drug test result.

The drug accusation was once again stated by PRRD claiming that Pres. Bongbong Marcos is on the watch list of the Philippine Drug Enforcement Agency (PDEA).

However, PDEA debunked this claim from the former President. The agency stressed that PBBM is not and was never on its list. Even during the controversial drug war of PRRD, PDEA said that Marcos was never on its list contrary to the ex-President’s claim.

In line with PRRD’s claim, PBBM was asked to react, based on the report from ABS-CBN News. The President said, “I think it is the Fentanyl. Fentanyl is the strongest pain killer that you can buy.”

He added that fentanyl is highly addictive and it has very serious side effects. Marcos said that PRRD has been taking this drug for a very long time now, about five or six years, and this has to have an effect now.

“Palagay ko kaya nagkakaganyan,” Pres. Bongbong Marcos said, adding that he hopes Duterte’s doctors will take care of him well.

When asked if he can categorically deny that he is involved in drugs to end this issue, the President laughed and said, “I won’t even dignify the question.“

PRRD’s daughter Vice President Sara Duterte is PBBM’s running mate in the 2022 elections under the Uniteam.
