PRESIDENT Rodrigo Duterte wanted his daughter, Davao City Mayor Sara Duterte-Caprio, to run for president in the upcoming 2022 elections but she refused, Malacañang disclosed on Tuesday.

In a virtual press briefing, Palace spokesman Harry Roque Jr. said Duterte-Carpio's refusal prompted the President to consider endorsing Sen. Emmanuel 'Manny' Pacquiao, Manila Mayor Francisco 'Isko Moreno' Domagoso, and former senator Ferdinand 'Bongbong' Marcos Jr. because of their 'numbers.'
