Beso-beso for BBM, VP at PNPA graduation
The Philippine Star|April 20, 2024
Following First Lady Liza Marcos’ admission of a rift with Vice President Sara Duterte, President Marcos and Duterte bussed each other and shared the stage at the Philippine National Police Academy (PNPA)’s graduation rites in Silang, Cavite yesterday.

Marcos and Duterte were seen touching cheeks or doing “beso-beso” as he briefly held her arm when she and Interior Secretary Benhur Abalos welcomed him after the arrival honors. The officials then walked together to the stage.

The country’s two highest officials were seated beside each other and were seen chatting during the program.

Duterte also stood next to Marcos when they handed the diplomas to 223 graduating PNPA cadets.

The Vice President and concurrent education secretary introduced Marcos for his speech to the graduates. They left the venue separately without giving a media interview.

The graduation was held hours after the First Lady’s interview with Anthony Taberna was posted on YouTube.

During the interview, Liza said she was hurt when the Vice President was seen laughing at a recent prayer rally in Davao City, after her father, former president Rodrigo Duterte, called her husband “bangag” or high on drugs.
