Duterte files COC for president

Davao City Mayor Rodrigo Duterte makes his 2016 presidential bid official.

Duterte, who has been blowing hot and cold about his presidential bid for several months, filed his certificate of candidacy for president shortly after he withdrew his candidacy for mayor earlier today.

Duterte submitted his COC for president through a representative.

On November 21, Duterte declared that he was seeking the presidency, supposedly because of his displeasure over the senate electoral tribunal’s decision against Senator Grace Poe’s disqualification case.
