Sotto not worried over Duterte: ‘Si Manny Pacquiao nga nagpapa-check-up’
Senate President Vicente “Tito” Sotto III on Monday said President Rodrigo Duterte’s last-minute medical check-up on Sunday night is not a cause for concern, saying that even Filipino boxing champ and Senator Manny Pacquiao goes through check-ups before his fight.
“Hindi naman siguro. Mabuti nga yung nagpapa-check up parati. Si Manny Pacquiao nga nagpapa-check-up one week before the fight eh,” Sotto told reporters at the House of Representatives when asked if he was concerned about the President’s health.
“Tama iyon,” Sotto added.
