MANILA, Philippines — Vice President and Education Sara Duterte will wear a Bagobo Tagabawa traditional dress for President Ferdinand “Bongbong” Marcos Jr.’s first State of the Nation Address on Monday, July 25.

This is to honor her kababayans from the Bagobo Tagabawa tribe of Davao City, Duterte’s spokesman Atty. Reynold Munsayac said on Friday.

Munsayac said Duterte will only borrow a Bagobo Tagabawa dress from the Deputy Mayor of the Tagabawa tribe of Davao City Bae Sheirelle Anino since making one for her will no longer make it in time for Monday’s Sona.
