The camp of Vice President-elect Sara Duterte warned the public Thursday, June 2 about the circulation on social media of a "quote card" attributing a false statement to the lady official, who will be taking over the Department of Education (DepEd) next month.

"A quote card has been circulating in social media falsely attributing to Vice President-elect Sara Duterte remarks regarding a supposed proposal to amend the K to 12 Program and the introduction of ROTC (Reserve Officers' Training Corps) and mandatory service in the AFP (Armed Forces of the Philippines)," Liloan, Cebu Mayor and Duterte Spokesperson Christina Frasco said in a statement.
"Vice President-elect Sara Duterte has never released any statements to this effect. The quote card is fake," said Frasco.
"This is not the first, and we anticipate that this will not be the last of these nefarious attempts to discredit, attack, and attribute lies and conjectures against Vice President-elect Sara Duterte as she transitions into the role of the Vice President and the Secretary of Education," added Frasco, who like Duterte is a lawyer.
It was only Wednesday when Frasco warned the public about certain individuals presenting themselves as Dutere's representatives allegedly for the purpose of collecting advance payments for DepEd projects.
The Duterte camp disavowed such activities.
"The public is enjoined to be circumspect against persons and groups who will no doubt continue to proliferate disinformation against Vice President-elect Sara Duterte in the coming months and years due to their own vested interests," Frasco said.
