Vice President Sara Duterte’s explosive remark about exhuming the body of former President Ferdinand Marcos Sr. and dumping it into the West Philippine Sea has shocked the public. But this drama is a strategy to cover up the bigger issue. It is a desperate attempt to deflect attention from the growing scandals surrounding her own office and the Duterte family’s legacy.
During the recent House of Representatives Committee on Good Government and Public Accountability hearings, questions were raised about how Sara Duterte has been spending millions of pesos in confidential funds. Instead of explaining where the money went, she’s now resorting to dramatic threats and pointing fingers. She has taken an aggressive position against the Marcoses and the current administration, trying to shift the narrative away from her own political and financial troubles.
It’s a move straight from her father’s playbook. During Rodrigo Duterte’s presidency, he was notorious for dodging scandals with bold distractions and outrageous remarks. However, the recent QuadComm hearings in Congress have uncovered just how deep his corruption ran. Testimonies have implicated him in a web of corruption, abuse, and ties to illegal drug activities during his presidency. From extra-judicial killings to his suspected connections with Chinese drug syndicates, the former president’s dirty secrets have been coming to light.
The Duterte family has long been plagued by allegations of corruption and abuse of power, and it’s clear Sara is following in her father’s footsteps. Instead of being transparent about her office’s handling of public funds, she’s choosing drama and diversion, hoping that the Filipino people will look the other way. But with the QuadComm findings fresh in everyone’s minds, the Duterte family can no longer hide behind threats and drama. The Duterte dynasty’s legacy of dodging accountability may finally be coming to an end.
From her father’s dark secrets to her misuse of confidential funds, Sara Duterte’s desperate actions speak volumes. The Filipino people deserve better than leaders who abuse power and evade responsibility.
