Former Pres. Rodrigo Duterte Asserted He Didn’t Attack Pres. Bongbong Marcos
RODRIGO DUTERTE – The Philippines’ former President claimed that Malacañang allegedly sponsored former Senator Antonio Trillanes IV to attack him.
After several instances of skipping the hearing of the House Quad Committee on his administration’s war on drugs, former Pres. Duterte appeared at Batasang Pambansa last week for the inquiry. It was a rare and unexpected instance as he has chosen not to attend the probe several times prior.
At the House hearing, former Pres. Duterte also unexpectedly told the ICC (International Criminal Court) to hurry up and come to the Philippines to investigate him. According to him, he might die without him having to be investigated by the international court.
There are also unexpected scenarios at the House Quad Comm hearing over the Duterte admin’s drug war. Former Pres. Rodrigo Duterte was spotted making gestures as if he wants to hit former Senator Leila de Lima.
Duterte also almost threw the microphone to former Sen. Antonio “Sonny” Trillanes IV who made strong accusations against him. The former Senator accused the former Chief Executive of having huge money in the bank. He dared him to sign a bank secrecy waiver so his account will be checked.
Trillanes also expressed his belief that the Duterte war on drugs is allegedly fake. According to him, the former President supposedly led the campaign to protect Michael Yang and vanish their competitors.
Following the House hearing, speaking to former presidential spokesperson Salvador Panelo, former Pres. Rodrigo Duterte did not hesitate to express his belief that former Sen. Antonio Trillanes IV was allegedly sponsored by Malacañang to attack him at the hearing.
Duterte also claimed that Trillanes allegedly allowed himself to be used as pawn of Malacañang for money. Based on a report on ABS-CBN News, he claimed that the former Senator will not do it without money.
“Itong si Trillanes talagang Malacañang-sponsored yan. Hindi gagalaw yan ng ganoon, walang pera yan,” the former President said.
According to former Pres. Rodrigo Duterte, he is puzzled as to why Malacañang is allegedly doing it. Based on the report, he claimed that they have not committed a mistake and they have not attacked the President.
“Nagtataka ako bakit ang Malacañang ginagawa. Wala naman kaming kasalanan sa kanila. Hindi naman ako nag-aatake kay Presidente. Pero alam ko si Trillanes nagtatrabaho kay President Marcos,” Duterte said.
Previously, after knowing that Duterte made a gesture that as if he wants to use his fist on her, former Sen. Leila de Lima said that Duterte has no any sense of decency anymore. She also tagged the action of the former President as a form of cowardice.
this old man really has lost his memory and seems hallucinating… Trillanes already exposes his anomalies and wrong doings even while he’s still the president, and this old man does everything to remain in power because he is good in manipulating and using the people behind him and making his enemies suffer… Filipinos were fooled by this old man… this time no duterte can fool us again.
