00:00Do you think that V.P. Sara is imitating her father, the late Ninoy Aquino?

00:14I don't think we've heard of a former President Duterte imitating Ninoy Aquino, if not Hitler.

00:25He even said, and I quote,

00:29Hitler massacred 3 million, actually it's supposed to be 6 million Jews.

00:33Now there is 3 million, what is it, 3 million drug addicts in the Philippines?

00:39There are. I'd be happy to slaughter them.

00:43At least if Germany had Hitler, the Philippines would have me.

00:49So it's very far to compare oneself or compare former President Duterte to Ninoy Aquino

00:57who did not have any record of mass murder or crimes against humanity.

01:05Former President Duterte preferred to compare himself to Hitler.

01:12I wonder, where did these stories come from?

01:17Where did the comparison to Ninoy Aquino come from?

01:23Where did the threats come from?

01:25As a matter of fact, the threats to V.P. Sara are still not shown to the NBI and PNP.

01:33So where did this come from?

01:35We need materials and evidence before making these kinds of statements.

01:41There is no truth to that.
