Philippine vice president Lenny Robredo announced on October 7 that she would participate in next year's presidential election.
According to Reuters on October 7, Robredo announced his candidacy in a live social media broadcast that day.
The president and vice president of the Philippines are elected respectively. Robredo and current president duterte come from different political parties. Robredo, 56, disagrees with duterte on many issues. She has criticized duterte's anti drug action.
The term of office of the president of the Philippines is six years and cannot be re elected. Duterte announced in August that he would participate in next year's vice presidential election, but on October 2, he said he would withdraw from politics and would not participate in next year's vice presidential election. Philippine Senator Christopher Wu, who is also from the Democratic People's forces party, said he would replace duterte in the vice presidential election.
After announcing his abandonment of the election, duterte told the media that his daughter, the current mayor of Davao, Sarah duterte kapio, would run for president, but Sarah has not officially stated her position to run at present.
The Philippines is scheduled to hold national and local elections next May. Earlier, Philippine senator and famous boxer Pacquiao, and Ferdinand Marcos Jr., the son of former Philippine President Ferdinand Marcos, have announced their candidacy.
