MANILA, Philippines — Former Senate President Franklin Drilon said on Thursday that the Supreme Court’s (SC) intervention is needed to settle the Senate leadership row, as the high court has the power to question the legality of the leadership reorganization.
He made the statement when asked if there was another way to settle the issue without involving the SC.
“For me, the Supreme Court is needed because this has gone deep and far. Many statements have been made, and the public and government operations are being inconvenienced if this is not resolved,” Drilon said in an interview with Inquirer.
