She also said the religious group leader’s blessings will serve as their “additional weapon” in facing the country’s challenges to come.
“Alam namin na hindi biro ang aming hinaharap. At kung sakaling kami ang pipiliin ng mga Pilipino sa Mayo, kakaharapin namin ang tiyak na mas malalaki pang hamon. Pero naniniwala ako na walang hamon o pagsubok o problema na hindi kayang solusyunan o lampasan sa pamamagitan ng ating pagkakaisa ,” she said in her speech at the event.
Duterte-Carpio also called on the public to support her “Mahalin natin ang Pilipinas” ride because through it, they can relay the UniTeam’s messages to the people and plans for the country should they win in May.
