However, he admitted that he was offered to run for vice president by some politicians.
“Merong naghikayat sa akin na maging ka-tandem nila sa 2022 elections at tinanggihan ko. I said no. Why? Mataas ang respeto ko kay PRRD, kay Pangulong Duterte,” Tulfo said. “Wala po akong intensiyon na banggain siya sa darating na halalan/”
President Rodrigo Duterte has accepted his nomination from PDP-Laban to run for vice president.
