Meanwhile, rain did not stop around a hundred militants from joining the Black Friday protest in Bacolod City.

The protesters, mostly members of the Bagong Alyansang Makabayan-Negros and other progressive groups, marched from the San Sebastian Cathedral up to the Fountain of Justice here while shouting, "Marcos, Hitler, Diktador, Tuta [Marcos, Hitler, Dictator, Puppet]!"

In Mindanao, where Duterte hails from, protests in Cagayan de Oro and Bacolod City likewise called for accountability from the Marcoses and the President.
