Vice President Sara Duterte’s spokesperson Paolo Panelo says his principal has no knowledge or recollection of the Bank of the Philippine Islands account and transactions scrutinized during the impeachment trial.
Panelo also rejects allegations of China-linked funds and says Duterte is not a “Manchurian candidate.”

He adds that Davao City Mayor Baste Duterte has emerged as a “viable alternative candidate” for 2028 after appearing as a witness in his sister’s impeachment trial
