De Lima: Duterte Has No Right To Become The President
Duterte has no right to become the president, says previous Commission on Human Rights (CHR) chairwoman and Justice secretary Leila de Lima.
"In the event that you have no admiration for human rights, you likewise have no appreciation for the law. So in what capacity would he be able to lead our nation if that is his conviction?" senator-elect De Lima said in a presscon session, as cited by the Inquirer.
The Liberal Party (LP) senator was alluding to presumptive president Rodrigo Duterte, who in his most recent swagger overflowing articulation pledged to actualize open executions–the kind that was done hundreds of years ago–against criminal and medication guilty parties if he win in May 2016.
This clearly didn't sit well with De Lima.
