Sara Duterte says she will leave politics but prioritizes serving Filipinos first
Vice President Sara Duterte stated she will eventually leave politics but must first address the needs of the Filipino people. This comment came after her father, former President Rodrigo Duterte, suggested she step away from political life. During a recent press conference, she expressed her commitment to the 32.2 million Filipinos who elected her. She acknowledged her father's earlier encouragement to pursue public office, highlighting the complexity of her political journey. Sara Duterte is currently facing scrutiny over the alleged misuse of confidential funds from her office. The Commission on Audit flagged significant amounts spent, leading to a House committee investigation that could result in legal consequences for her if not adequately explained.
