Senator Leila de Lima confirmed that she will seek and run for senator in 2022 national elections. De Lima is known as a outspoken critic of Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte.
"Tatakbo akong muli. Hindi ako susuko. Tuloy ang laban," De Lima said in a statement. She will continue to prove that the allegations against her were trumped-up.
De Lima has some words to President Duterte:
“Sisingilin ka namin sa anim na taon na pambabalasubas mo sa aming bansa,” De Lima said.
De Lima, a former chair of the Commission on Human Rights, is a vocal critic of Duterte's flagship campaign against illegal drugs.
De Lima, also a former Justice secretary, expressed confidence that the remaining drug-related charges filed against her will be junked by the court.
