Statement by Mayor Sara Duterte on the use of airplane for campaign materials

This is about a video circulating on social media showing three men at the Davao International Airport talking about a meeting with me and the use of an airplane for campaign materials. 

The public is advised that I have never told anyone that I am running for President and I have not conducted any meeting about the use of a plane for my campaign materials. 

I do not know the persons in the video — a certain PSI Manager Gino, Bong Acquia, TG Ponce, and the political coordinator of Ituloy Ang Pagbabago Movement (IPM). I am not a member of and not privy to IPM activities. 

I sternly warn supporters about using my name in their personal transactions. I have already successfully pursued a case for name dropping, and recently supported a case against an organized crime group of money scammers who used my name in their fraudulent activities. I do not tolerate these activities and I do not hesitate to pursue legal action against those who besmirched my reputation even if they are supporters. 

Thank you.
