Manila City Mayor Isko Moreno says he has no plans to run for president in the 2022 elections.

He stated this during an interview on CNN Philippines and emphasized his focus on combating the COVID-19 pandemic and vaccination efforts.

Davao City Mayor Sara Duterte, who leads a recent Pulse Asia survey of potential presidential candidates with 26%, urged poll firms to remove her name from similar surveys.

Sara Duterte cited the ongoing challenges brought by the pandemic as reasons for not focusing on the elections.
