Sunstar-Bacolod source, who requested not to be named, confirmed on Monday, April 8, that President Duterte will lead the political rally of the senatorial candidates of PDP-Laban in Bacolod City.
The source said the activity will be hosted by Grupo Progreso (GP) led by Mayor Evelio Leonardia.
Bacolod City already received a communication from the Office of the President and they are now finalizing their preparations with the Presidential management staff.
