Presidential aspirant Senator Panfilo Lacson and his vice presidential running mate Senate President Vicente Sotto III both tested negative for illegal drugs on Monday after their voluntary drug tests.
“This is nothing new to me. When I ran for the Senate during the 2016 elections, I also did a voluntary drug test in Cebu,” Sotto said in a statement. “I firmly believe that leaders of our country should be drug-free. They should lead by example and by conviction. If they cannot do this, then how will the people follow, believe and obey them?” he added.

Illegal drugs is a serious issue with or without the election season.
