Is Senator Francis Chiz Escudero a datu?

Hello there! If you are new here, you might want to subscribe to the RSS feed for updates on this topic.

Apparently he now is! The once spokesperson of ~~former President Erap Estrada~~ (the late Fernando Poe, Jr.) and now opposition senator Francis “Chiz” Escudero was recently “adopted” as a Datu. Chiz Escudero is now also known as “Datu Matansub” (meaning approachable and wise).

The adoption of Chiz as a datu was held last March 14, 2009 in Davao City, Mindanao during a meeting with tribal leaders. The meeting was held in line with the Mindanao Indigenous Peoples Conference for People and Development. Check out the photo provided to Mindanaoan by the Office of Senator Francis Escudero below.
