FL’s sentiments have nothing to do with mandate — Sara Du30
By Nidz Godino
“Bilang tao karapatan ni unang ginang Liza Marcos na makaramdam ng sama ng loob at galit, subalit, ang kanyang personal na damdamin ay walang kinalaman sa aking mandato bilang opisyal ng pamahalaan,” in video message Vice President Sara Duterte-Carpio said personal sentiments of First Lady Liza Araneta-Marcos against her are not covered by her mandate as public servant.
The vice president, also country’s Education secretary, said this in video message days after the first lady revealed she now views Duterte negatively.
The vice president also would have private talk with President Ferdinand Marcos Jr.
“Upang maka-usad tayo, iiwan na natin sa isang pribadong pag-uusap sa pagitan lamang namin ni Pangulong Bongbong Marcos Jr. ang mga susunod na hakbang,” she said.
Araneta-Marcos said Duterte “crossed line” after she was spotted attending anti-Charter Change prayer rally in January and laughing her father’s former President Rodrigo Duterte remarks about Marcos being “stoned.”
“You are getting suweldo from government, you are supposed to be alter ego, that’s not right…that’s entitled politics. ..you’re in government…you’re the vice president…bad shot na ‘yan sa akin unless she says sorry,” the first lady said.

Duterte patriarch previously claimed the president was on watchlist of Philippine Drug Enforcement Agency. However, agency debunked claim of the former president.
In response, Marcos said Rodrigo was suffering the effects of use of fentanyl. Drug accusations between two further fueled speculations of falling out between Dutertes and Marcoses.
When asked relationship with Dutertes last April 15, Marcos responded: “It’s complicated.”
Meanwhile, lawmaker asked the vice president to resign from her post at Department of Education, saying she cannot serve interests of her family while their allies challenge authority of the president.
“The Vice President should show some decency by resigning from her DepEd post at the very least…her family unleashed barrage of insults and attacks directly to the President and yet she does nothing and is still enjoying perks of being part of the official family, she cannot have the best of both worlds by being fence sitter while her family and their allies challenge the authority and mandate of President Ferdinand Marcos Jr while having little to show for in terms of substantive results at Department of Education, where she is Secretary,” Rep. Joel Chua (Manila, 3rd District) said in a statement.
