Viral: Nope, that’s not the President, but the resemblance is uncanny

With all the security threats against President Rodrigo Duterte, we see why this guy is scared for his life. He’s got the President’s famous nose and more!

A revenue collection officer at Manticao Municipal Treasurer’s Office earned online fame for effortlessly looking like the country’s Chief Executive. A photo of 53-year-old Cresencio Estremus has now gone viral on social media. 

The similarities aren’t just skin-deep.

According to his colleagues, Estremus, more popularly known as “Inday” in their area, has gestures which remind them of the tough-talking President. 

For security reasons, Estemus refused to grant an interview to ABS-CBN News. 

He even went out of his way to cut his hair to make himself look different from the President, who has been receiving security threats because of his campaign against drugs and crime. 

The mayor of Manticao Antonio Baculio said that Estemus shouldn’t be scared, and should consider it an asset that he could easily be the President’s double.
