A copy of the impeachment complaint versus Vice Pres. Robredo has been sent to the Congress.
IMPEACHMENT COMPLAINT – A copy of the impeachment complaint against Vice President Leni Robredo was sent to House Speaker Pantaleon Alvarez.
Based on a recent news report in Radyo Inquirer, Melchor Chavez and Atty. Oliver Lozano sent a copy of the impeachment complaint against the Vice President to the Congress.
Lozano and Chavez requested House Speaker Alvarez to endorse the impeachment complaint against the Vice President. They stated in a letter that Vice Pres. Robredo “is the termite of the government.”
According to the report, in the complaint against the Vice President, two grounds were stated: Culpable Violation of the Constitution and Betrayal of Public Trust.
The complaint won’t be formally filed by Lozano and Chavez as it has still no endorsement from any incumbent congressman according to the report.
Moreover, it is stated in the report that the complaint rooted on the video message sent by the Vice President to United Nations Commission on Drugs.
Based on the complaint, the Vice President destroyed the image of the Philippines in the whole world. According to the News Media PH, the GMA News has publicized the copy of the complaint against the Vice President.
Based on a previous news report, House Speaker Alvarez has expressed that he is studying the possibility of filing an impeachment complaint against the Vice President.
The House Speaker and as well as Presidential Spokesperson Ernesto Abella claimed that Vice Pres. Robredo could be behind the filing of impeachment complaint against Pres. Rodrigo Roa Duterte.
“If I find enough evidence to prosecute here, we have to see if it can stand trial before the Senate,” Speaker Alvarez told the CNN based on the report.
According to the House Speaker, this is the only time that an official who sits on the top position in the government “brazenly maligned” the country internationally.
Meanwhile, Magdalo Representative Gary Alejano, the one who filed the complaint against the 71-year-old President, expressed that the House Speaker is just dragging away the issue from Pres. Duterte.
Rep. Alejano also said that filing a complaint against Vice Pres. Robredo because of what she has expressed before the UN shows that the Duterte Adminstration does not welcome criticisms.
The said Magdalo Representative tagged it as “mark of a dictator.”
