Presidential aspirant Panfilo ‘Ping’ Lacson and vice presidential aspirant Tito Sotto both tested negative in a drug testing conducted today.
The two went on a voluntary drug testing, following President Rodrigo Duterte’s revelations that a presidential aspirant is a cocaine user.

“Magkaalaman na kung sino matatapang,” Sotto said when he went to the Philippine Drug Enforcement Agency or PDEA on Monday.
Lacson said they underwent a multi-drug screening procedure which can detect various forms of illegal drugs in the body.
The results released to the media showed that the 2022 hopefuls are negative from illegal drugs.
