MANILA\u2014Presidential candidate and Davao City Mayor Rodrigo Duterte will be at the Commission on Elections (Comelec) head office in Intramuros Manila tomorrow to ensure that his candidacy won\u2019t have loopholes.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis is to bolster his COC which was earlier filed through his lawyer Salvador Medialdea with a personal appearance and oath before a Comelec notary,\u201d Duterte\u2019s spokesman, Peter Tiu Lavi\u00f1a was quoted as saying in a Manila Bulletin report.<\/p>\n

Duterte\u2019s appearance at the Comelec also aims to clear doubts regarding the validity of his candidacy.<\/p>\n

The National Capital Region (NCR) Quick Action Team, an organization formed by Duterte\u2019s former classmates will accompany the mayor to Comelec.<\/p>\n

Sen. Alan Peter Cayetano, Duterte\u2019s running mate will also be present to support the mayor.<\/p>\n

Lavi\u00f1a also asked the public to join the mayor tomorrow at Comelec.<\/p>\n

\u201cJoin us if you are in the Intramuros area. We do not like though to cause any traffic inconvenience to the good people of Metro Manila whose choice is clearly and conclusively for genuine change under the Duterte-Cayetano tandem,\u201d he said in the same report.<\/p>\n

Lavinia also told Duterte\u2019s supporters to be cautious of setting up campaign funds.<\/p>\n

\u201cLet us not put our candidate in peril. The best way for everyone to help is to spend their own money to print their own shirts, put up their own tarpaulins in front of their homes or shops or in their vehicles, pay for their own transportation and snacks in attending Duterte meetings, forum or activities in their cities or communities, pay their own way to polling places, particularly OFWs who have to take leave from work and travel far to embassies and consular offices abroad,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

\u201cIf you know or learn of anyone undertaking fund-raising schemes, please let us know so we can advise them. Of course, spies from the enemy camps can do this as well to destroy the good name of the mayor and sow disunity among our ranks. Worry not, we shall expose them,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
