MANILA, Philippines — Photos and videos of President Rodrigo Duterte riding a motorcycle and jogging at night were released Saturday amid questions hounding his recent whereabouts.
The President’s former longtime aide and Senator Christopher “Bong” Go shared the photos on his Facebook page after Duterte’s regular briefing was postponed twice earlier this week.
Photos showed the President sitting on a motorcycle while wearing a face mask and a face shield.

One clip also showed Duterte, who just recently turned 76, jogging.
It was not immediately clear when and where the photos and videos were taken. INQUIRER.net sought Go’s comment but has yet to reply, as of this writing.
On Friday, Malacañang addressed critics questioning Duterte’s seeming absence from the public eye, explaining it was to him and his staff safe amid the high number of active COVID-19 cases.
It also assured that the President remains fit and healthy.
