DAVAO CITY – Hundreds of people from various sectors in Southern Mindanao are expected to flood the streets of President Rodrigo Duterte’s home city and stage a people’s State of the Nation Address (Sona) to counter the Chief Executive’s. Hundreds of protesters, some bearing red banners and carrying black coffin replicas began streaming along Magsaysay Street, one of Davao’s busiest, around 9 a.m. Monday. ADVERTISEMENT“This is the people’s Sona which would also shout the people’s strong opposition to martial law,” Apiag said.
