Dingdong Dantes denies making comment about VP Sara Duterte

Dingdong Dantes denied that he made a remark about Philippine Vice President Sara Duterte.

On Facebook, the Kapuso Primetime King shared a screenshot of a post from a netizen who claimed that he spoke about the vice president.

"Dingdong Dantes said! Nakakatakot pag nanalo si VP Sara. Nakikita ko sa kanya ang tapang talino at abilidad na may kakayahang mamuno gaya ng kanyang ama," the post read.

In his caption, Dingdong set the record straight and said, "Hindi ko 'to sinabi."

The post has since been taken down and the netizen also apologized to Dingdong.

In another Facebook post, Dingdong said he forgives the netizen.

"Dingdong Dantes said: Apology accepted," the actor said.

"Nawa'y maging mas mapanuri po tayong lahat, lalu na sa misinformation at disinformation… at sa bawat diskurso, piliin sana natin ang respeto sa kapwa Pilipino. Peace!" Dingdong added.

Last week, Duterte announced her intent to run for the Philippine presidency in 2028.
