MANILA, Philippines – Presidential daughter and Davao City Mayor Sara Duterte-Carpio maintained that senatorial candidates of the opposition coalition Otso Diretso are liars and are using misleading and inaccurate statements against other candidates and President Rodrigo Duterte.

“They use inaccurate, misleading statements and even direct lies when they attack other candidates or President Duterte and they know they are stretching the truth and yet they deny that they are lying,” she said in a statement sent to reporters Wednesday.

“That is the reason why they should not attack other candidates about honesty because they are themselves liars. And this is the truth. And this shows in their dismal performance in the race, people know they are not truthful,” she added.
