Gina Lopez on Duterte's DENR post offer: I will truly, genuinely consider it

A key post in the approaching Cabinet has been offered to Gina Lopez of the ABS-CBN Kapamilya Foundation. 

President-elect Rody Duterte solicited Gina Lopez to be Secretary from Environment and Natural Resources after the two met at the Presidential Guest House in Panacan, Davao City. 

Lopez said she was regarded by the trust being given her by the approaching President, yet she had yet to think it over. 

"I will truly, genuinely consider it," she said. 

Incoming Special Assistant to the President Bong Go had beforehand said Duterte considered the earth portfolio a "delicate" one. Mining is among issues that Duterte tended to amid the campaing — getting out enormous organizations and requesting that they do their business dependably. 


Lopez, who upheld Duterte's presidential run, is known for her ecological backings. She was confirmed by President Benigno Aquino as administrator of the Pasig River Rehabiliation Commission (PRRC) in August 2010. 

Interim, she included that with or without a Cabinet post, she would be behind the Duterte organization. 

"Whether I'm in DENR or not, I will give my 100 percent backing to this great man and who I think would be the best President."
