STATEMENT
26 September 2026

Mga kababayan,

I do not know Rodulfo Gracioso Jr., nor have I ever received any money from him.

My lawyers are awaiting an official copy of the Gracioso affidavit from the National Bureau of Investigation (NBI) so they can begin working on the cases to be filed against him.

Once we are done dismantling the lies contained in his testimony, it will end up in the trash bin—just like the one from Ramil Madriaga.

This is nothing more than another media stunt, an attempt to breathe life into a faltering impeachment case.

The desperation of the administration to bring me down, push for Charter Change, prevent the 2028 elections, and cling to power is becoming increasingly diabolical.

The people want Marcos to take a public drug test. The people want Marcos to answer for the flood control scandal. The people want change.

No amount of political maneuvering, propaganda, or manufactured distractions can ultimately silence the Filipino people.

SARA Z. DUTERTE
Vice President of the Philippines

LOOK: This is how former President Rody Duterte looks now, after 18 months in International Criminal Court detention. He is appearing in person before judges for the first time in his ICC case.

Earlier, his defense raised serious concerns about Duterte’s ability to participate in the proceedings, telling the ICC that significant memory problems are affecting his ability to retain recent information, reliably recall memories and meaningfully assist his lawyers.

In a Sept. 14 filing, lead counsel Peter Haynes said Duterte “suffers from significant memory impairment that prevents him from retaining recent information and reliably accessing memories.”
