Former President Rodrigo Duterte thumbed down calls for him to become an anti-drug czar under the current administration, saying it is now the duty of President Ferdinand “Bongbong” Marcos Jr. to address the illegal drug problem in the country.
Former President Rodrigo Duterte on Wednesday thumbed down calls for him to become an anti-drug czar under the current administration, saying it is now the duty of President Ferdinand “Bongbong” Marcos Jr. to address the illegal drug problem in the country.
Duterte, who has been facing an International Criminal Court investigation because of his bloody war on drugs during his term as president, was asked if he would consider the idea of possibly working for the Marcos administration as an anti-drug czar. “Let us give Marcos the greatest elbow room leeway to do his job in just one year. And in fairness do’n sa mga pulis, 'yan ang problema [to the police, that’s the problem]. The last time I said it, it's a matter of leadership,” the former president said.
