Naga City Mayor Leni Robredo has once again ruled out a possible presidential bid in the 2028 national elections, saying her decision is already final despite continued calls for her to run.
In a report by DZRH Naga's Ruel Saldico, Robredo said in a Monday morning interview, November 9, that most of those urging her to run for president are her former allies in the 2022 presidential campaign.
However, she said she had already made it clear to them that her decision was final and that no amount of persuasion would change her mind.
“Matagal nang sarado. Wala nang anything na makakapagbago [ng desisyon] kahit marami pa sila [na magco-convince],” Robredo said.
She further emphasized that even if she eventually decides not to seek another term as Naga City mayor, she has no plans of returning to national politics.
“Mag-decide man ako later on na hindi na ako mag-Mayor, hindi na rin ako babalik ng national,” she added.
Robredo served as vice president from 2016 to 2022 before running for president in the 2022 elections, where she placed second to President Ferdinand Marcos Jr.
