[Todays Viral] Davao City Mayor Rodrigo Duterte reveals that "Emilio Aguinaldo" is his top donor? Check this out!

A lot of people were confused when Presidential candidate and Davao City Mayor Rodrigo Duterte said that his top donor is "Emilio Aguinaldo". He said this in the final debate by the Commission on Elections and hosted by ABS-CBN. 

When host Karen Davila asked him to name his top campaign donor, Duterte replied: "nasa bukid, ma'am." But when asked for a specific name, he just said: "Emilio Aguinaldo".

Peter Laviña, his spokesperson, revealed who is "Emilio Aguinaldo" mentioned by the Davao City mayor. He claims that Duterte represents many poor Filipinos, like the farmers, who contributed small amounts to his campaign. 

"Iyung pera natin, mga heroes ang nakalagay sa pera natin. Si Emilio Aguinaldo sa 5 peso bill natin, meron din coins na 5 pesos. Maliit masyado ang halaga pero malaki ang symbolism dahil isa sa ating national hero si Emilio Aguinaldo. Iyun lang ang halaga na kayang ibigay ng maliit na tao,'' Laviña added.

Emilio Aguinaldo was the first president of the Philippines in the first Republic from January 1899 to March 1901.
