One Cebu has not yet officially chosen who they will support as their presidential candidate but vice gubernatorial candidate Nerissa Soon-Ruiz wants Davao City Mayor Rodrigo Duterte.
During 888 News Forum today, she said she wants to support a fellow Cebuano.
“Kinsa may dili mo botar anang usa ka Sugbuanon? (who will not vote for a fellow Sugbuanon) Just like former president Sergio Osmeña,” she said.
Rep. Benhur Salimbangon of Cebu’s 4th district also said even if the National Unity Party (NUP) has not officially endorsed any presidential candidate, he also wants to support Duterte since he is also a Cebuano.
“We need someone who can look out for Cebu,” Salimbangon said.
