PRESIDENT Duterte deferred his one-on-one interview with Presidential spokesman Salvador S. Panelo for the second time on Tuesday.
In a televised speech, Panelo said Duterte was not feeling well after several meetings and going over several documents the day before.
“We are sorry that you had to wait for sometime for this tete-a-tete with the President. However, the President is presently under the weather,” Panelo said.
He said the tete-a-tete may be rescheduled in February.
“We will let you know as soon as we know the specific date,” Panelo said.
The event was originally scheduled on January 22, but was postponed due to alleged pressing family matters of Duterte.
