The Philippine president said debate over impeachment of his deputy, who has embroiled in a bitter row with him, is a ‘storm in a teacup’.
Philippine President Ferdinand Marcos Jnr said on Friday that any impeachment complaint against his estranged vice-president Sara Duterte, who over the weekend made threats against his life, would only tie down Congress and not help people.
Congresswoman France Castro was quoted by ABS-CBN News as saying on Friday that lawmakers in the lower house are set to file an impeachment complaint against Duterte for betrayal of public trust, bribery and other high crimes such as plunder.
