MANILA, Philippines — Senate Minority Leader Vicente “Tito” Sotto III on Sunday disputed the claim of Sen. Imee Marcos that he and Sen. Panfilo “Ping” Lacson were conniving to block the supposed presidential run of Vice President Sara Duterte in 2028.
The opposition senator said Marcos was misinformed when she was told of supposed plans to convoke Congress into a constituent assembly to extend the terms of President Marcos and incumbent representatives.
Marcos said in an interview on Thursday that lawmakers are also conspiring to raise the presidential age requirement from 45 to 50 purposely to disqualify Duterte.
