It’s official: Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte is running for senator in the country’s 2022 elections.
The President’s lawyer filed his certificate of candidacy on Monday, the last day of filing for electoral aspirants’ withdrawal and substitutions.
Duterte is running under the Pederalismo ng Dugong Dakilang Samahan (PDDS) party, replacing senatorial candidate Liezl Visorde.
The PDDS is the same party backing the presidential bid of Duterte-aide-turned-senator Bong Go.
