Sara confirms reelection bid as Davao mayor
Davao City Mayor Sara Duterte confirmed her bid for reelection in the 2022 elections, which will be her third consecutive term.
Her brother, Vice Mayor Sebastian Duterte, will also seek reelection and will be the organizing person for the joint campaign of Hugpong ng Pagbabago and Hugpong sa Tawong Lungsod.
This decision means Mayor Duterte will not run for president, as previously indicated.
She reiterated her support for her father, President Rodrigo Duterte's, vice presidential bid in 2022, urging the public to support his decision for the continuity of his efforts.
President Duterte had accepted the PDP-Laban party's nomination to run for vice president.
