DAVAO CITY– Acting City Mayor Rodrigo Duterte disclosed that public interest remains his top priority in governance.
Speaking in his public affairs program, “Gikan sa Masa, Para sa Masa” on Sunday, he pointed out that he will support his daughter, City Mayor Sara Duterte-Carpio, if she’s correct in implementing the law.
Duterte said he will also point out the errors if the mayor is wrong in her actions.
“This is government. This is not our property. We are working here for the people,” he pointed out.
Duterte admitted that indeed there was a disagreement between him and the city mayor in the implementation of the gun ban which suspended the license to carry firearms outside residence last March due to its constitutional infirmities.
He said he was against the move because of its implication on due process and equal protection of laws, two important constitutional guarantees to the lives of the people.
Even when the mayor is his daughter, Duterte said he cannot just keep silent on matters of public interest.
Duterte said he also expects the mayor to criticize him and the City Council if they also commit mistakes in the performance of their duties.
He said the mayor has a mind of her own even during her growing up years.
“I did not raise my daughter as a robot. I expect her to go up as a lawyer, and if she thinks her stance is right, fine. Let’s debate on it so that the people will know, because it will be the people who will benefit from it at the end of the day,” Duterte said.
Earlier, Duterte-Carpio said she could have disproved the vice mayor’s opinion on the legality of the gun ban in court being the only entity that can rule on the legitimacy of any measure.
She said she felt awkward responding to the issues raised by the vice mayor on the gun ban in public because she wanted to maintain her respect for elders.
