DAVAO City Mayor Sebastian Baste Duterte said the administration is so obsessed with his father the former president Rodrigo Duterte.
In his recent TV program aired on Sunday night Basta Dabawenyo, Duterte said that President Ferdinand Marcos Jr., especially his allies in the House of Representatives were obsessed with his father that they didn’t have any other things in mind but Duterte.
He added that Congress which seemed to be determined to pin down Duterte is now “hesitant” to initiate an investigation.
This is in response to Senator Ronald Bato Dela Rosa’s statement that he will conduct his own investigation in the so-called extrajudicial killings (EJKs) at the Senate.
However Senate President Chiz Escudero said Dela Rosa cannot lead the investigation as he was also accused of being involved in Duterte’s war on drugs campaign.
“Sige ug panghagit na paadtuon si PRD sa Congress karong muadto na Sila na pud Ang Dili gusto (They keep on challenging PRD to come to their hearing and now that he is willing to come and will attend the hearing it’s them who don’t want the investigation now?),” Mayor Duterte mused.
