“I accepted the resignation of Vit Aguirre, my fraternity brother, as Secretary of Justice. I am now in the hustings looking for a replacement,” Duterte said, but he did not provided the reasons behind, would that be:

1. A report came that the President immediately punches the wall after knowing that DOJ acquitted those self-confessed drug lords, Peter Lim and Kerwin Espinosa.
