00:00 President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. arrives in Davao City Wednesday, February 7, his first
00:05 visit to the bailiwick of his predecessor, Rodrigo Duterte, since the two traded accusations
00:10 regarding drug use.
00:12 Marcos is in Davao to grace several government events.
00:15 Last January 28, Duterte led a candlelight prayer rally, where he warned Marcos of being
00:20 ousted in office, just like his dictator father, if he continues pushing for Chacha.
00:25 Duterte also claimed he once saw Marcos' name on the government's drug watchlist.
00:29 Marcos fired back a day later, accusing Duterte of continued fentanyl use and blaming the
00:34 drug for his erratic behavior.
00:36 Since then, the rift between the two families has become more pronounced.
00:40 Marcos and Duterte's daughter, Sarah, ran as a tandem in the 2022 polls.
