In response to former Cebu City Mayor Michael Rama’s challenge, Mayor Tomas Osmeña said he accepts Rama’s challenge but it should be done according to his terms.

Rama called for a press conference on Friday morning at the Rama Ancestral House in Barangay Basak San Nicolas in Cebu City challenged the mayor to a ‘one-on-one’ drug test on Saturday.

“I’m agreeable to this. But he cannot dictate to me what time,” said Osmeña in an interview with reporters at the City Hall on Friday noon.
