Rodrigo "Rody" Roa Duterte[1] (born March 28, 1945), nicknamed Digong, is a Filipino lawyer and politician who was the President of the Philippines from 2016 to 2022. Because of the urge of most Filipinos, he announced that he would run as a candidate for President of the Philippines on November 21, 2015. On May 9, 2016, Duterte was elected president.
He was among the longest-serving mayors in the Philippines. He had previously been a long-time mayor of Davao City from 1988 through 1998, from 2000 through 2010, and from 2013 through 2016. He was born in the city of Maasin, Leyte.[2]
In August 2021, he announced his candidacy for Vice President of the Philippines.[3]
In October 2021, Rodrigo Duterte announced that he was not running for vice-presidency in 2022 and would retire from political life.[4] Instead, his daughter Sara Duterte ran and was elected vice president in a landslide victory in May 2022. His son, Sebastian Duterte, was elected as Davao City mayor.
