Diether Ocampo as a politician? Well, wala raw katotohanan ang mga balitang kumakalat na tatakbo for local office ang aktor. Nagbigay na ng statement Si Diether tungkol dito through his managers at ABS-CBN Star Magic. Kuntento na umano ito sa pagtulong at pagsupporta sa ating mga kababayan na nangangailangan.
Ito ang buong statement ng aktor on the issue:
"There is no truth in the news that I am running for the local office neither that I am consulting anybody for political advice. I am not interested nor aspiring for any seat in politics. I would rather talk about improving our social and civic developments especially in the southern part or the country, mainly in Mindanao, where a lot of our muslim brothers and sisters are in need of support and inspiration from people like us."
