Tuguegarao City, Cagayan – Following recent claims of a cocaine-using Presidential aspirant by President Rodrigo Duterte, the tandem of Senator Panfilo Lacson and Senator Tito Sotto on Monday, took their drug tests at the Philippine Drug Enforcement Agency office in Quezon City and both got negative results.
Both Senators took the challenge to dismiss allegations by the President by undergoing voluntary multi-drug screening procedures to ensure all types of illegal drugs are detected.
Senator Lacson said in a statement, “This is our way of walking the talk, because of the recent challenges. So, to cut all the talk, we came here, the Senate President and I. Let’s just say it is our responsibility as candidates or prospective candidates to show that we lead by example.”
The Presidential aspirant said it was his running-mate in Sotto who invited him to undergo the drug tests. TNF
