President Ferdinand "Bongbong" Marcos Jr's former executive secretary, Atty. Vic Rodriguez , on Tuesday urged him to undergo a "credible hair follicle drug test" in order to put an end to allegations that he is an illegal drug user.Rodriguez made the statement when asked about Marcos' remark in January that he would not dignify inquiries on his alleged illegal drug use.
Rodriguez said his call for regular drug tests on government officials was his response to those who challenged the result that he presented in 2021 showing Marcos negative for illegal drug use. He said he is standing by the result.“Ako ay nakakaladkad. Ako ay nagpakita ng pekeng resulta noong 2021. Sasabihin ko sa lahat na aking pinanindigan ang resulta na aking pinakita noong 2021 na negatibo si then BBM, 'yung kandidatong BBM,” he added.
