MANILA–President Rodrigo Duterte was not only unwilling to take back his memorandum ordering members of his Cabinet to ignore the Senate probe into alleged pandemic corruption, but he also wanted the senators to take it to the Supreme Court.
During the first part of his address aired on Wednesday, October 6, Duterte did not waste time in addressing again the Senate blue ribbon committee.
“It’s good for the people to be learned of the things that we are doing so that alam ninyo ang ano mangyayari sa gobyerno lalo na ngayon ay may gulo dito sa Congress (You know what is happening, especially now that there’s trouble in Congress),” he said.
