Mayor Inday Sara warns public vs campaign fund scam


Davao City Mayor Sara Duterte-Carpio warned the public against a group illegally soliciting money for her campaign funds for the 2022 Presidential Elections.

“Nakarating po sa akin ang balita na may ilang indibidwal na humihingi ngayon ng pera mula sa ibang tao at iba’t ibang mga grupo, kabilang na riyan ang mga negosyante, para raw gamitin na campaign funds sa aking pagtakbo bilang Presidente (A report has reached me that several individuals are asking for money from other people and various groups, including businessmen, to use for my Presidential campaign funds).”

The First Daughter has initially denied that she will run for President in 2022. She also cautioned the public against the said rip-off.

“Wala po itong pahintulot mula sa akin. Huwag po kayong maniwala. Huwag po kayong magbigay. Ito po ay scam o uri ng panloloko. Magagamit lang ang perang malilikom sa fund raising na ito sa mga pansariling interes ng mga taong nasa likod nito (They have no permission from me. Do not believe them. Do not give money. This is a scam or a kind of trick. They will only use the collected money for their own interest).”

Mayor Duterte-Carpio asked the public to report to the police if they have encountered the modus operandi. – Report from Mela Lesmoras
