President Rodrigo Duterte said he will step down if anyone can produce a witness who can prove that he’s corrupt.
In a taped address late Monday, Duterte said he would also ask Cabinet officials to resign if proven that they took bribes.
“Maraming haka-haka diyan na kaming mga Cabinet members, ako tumatanggap ng pera,” the Chief Executive said.
“Look, I give you this guarantee. Magdala ka lang ng tao at sabihin mo nagbigay siya ng piso sa amin, mag-resign ako bukas. Just one person, one affidavit. Walang imbento, iyong totoo na sinabi na may tinanggap kami na pera,” he added.
Duterte, however, said as far as he is concerned, his Cabinet men are “all honest.”
Last October, the President ordered the Department of Justice to investigate allegations of corruption in the entire government. They have until June 30, 2020 to finish the job.
