Duterte pays last respects to Cardinal Vidal

President Rodrigo Duterte on early Monday visited the wake of Cebu Archbishop Emeritus Ricardo Cardinal Vidal.

Present during the visit at the Cebu Metropolitan Cathedral were Cebu Archbishop Jose Palma, Vidal's brother Juanito, and Presidential Assistant for Visayas Michael Dino.

Vidal will be laid to rest on October 26, which Cebuanos wanted to be declared a holiday.

He passed away on October 18 at the age of 86. He served as the archbishop of Cebu for 29 years until he retired in 2011.

Vidal paid a courtesy call on Duterte in Malacañang in July 2016. — Trisha Macas/RSJ, GMA News
