BBM remains mum on Sara's 'exhumation' remark
The Philippine Star|November 02, 2024
President Marcos has again begged off from commenting on Vice President Sara Duterte’s remark that she would dig up and throw the remains of his late father and namesake in the West Philippine Sea if his supporters would not stop attacking her and her family.

Reporters tried to get Marcos’ comment on the Vice President’s statement after he visited the grave of his father at the Libingan ng mga Bayani in Taguig City on All Saints’ Day yesterday.

“I’d rather not,” Marcos said. Again he was asked if his relation

ship with Duterte – his running mate in the 2022 elections – had reached “a point of no return.”

Marcos responded: “Let’s talk about it some other time.”

At a press conference on Oct. 18, Duterte recalled warning Marcos’ sister, Sen. Imee Marcos, that she would dig up the elder Marcos’ remains and throw them into the sea if political attacks from the current administration continued.

Duterte’s father, former president Rodrigo Duterte, recently dismissed the Vice President’s declaration as “an extended hyperbole.”

At the same press conference, the Vice President also accused Marcos of incompetence and lacking in leadership.

Duterte’s tirade had deepened the rift between the two powerful families ahead of midterm elections. The President and Malacañang have not responded to Duterte’s diatribe.

The President, accompanied by his mother, former first lady Imelda Marcos, attended a mass before the tomb of the former leader yesterday morning. First Lady Liza Marcos and Sen. Imee Marcos were not seen at the event.
