Pimentel says VP needs to seek help

Senator Koko Pimentel has advised Vice President Sara Duterte to seek help or confide in close friends and family.

Pimentel issued the statment in response to Duterte’s threat to exhume the remains of former President Ferdinand Marcos Sr. and throw it into the West Philippine Sea.

“Actually, I’m worried about her, the Vice President. I think she needs to talk to some professionals and maybe some close friends and family so she can express what she’s feeling and what’s on her mind,” the senator from Cagayan de Oro said.

He described the Vice President’s statements as unusual, even strange.

“Hindi siya usual eh. Yung mga nasabi niya, hindi usual po yun. Hindi yung na-verbalize niya yung naisip niya, yung naisip niya ang hindi usual. So, siguro kailangan mo meron siyang makausap na mas madunong sa atin,” said Pimentel.IMT
