KABATAAN Rep. Elago Kay PRRD: “Humanda Kayo sa Feb. 23, Maraming Kilos-Protesta at Walk out”

In a statement posted on Facebook on Friday, KABATAAN Party-list Rep. Sarah Elago hit Duterte's statement against student activists, and made clear that despite Duterte's warning, more students will hold protests in the future.

"Duterte can only shake at the growing resistance to his attacks on the youth. Duterte's knee-jerk reaction only proves that the youth has successfully registered their indignation against his anti-people policies and increasing fascist inclination," Elago said in a strongly-worded statement.

She warned of bigger protests to come on the "National Day of Walkout" set by student activists on February 23.Elago said this after Duterte on Thursday warned he would give the slots of student protesters to Lumads instead.
