MANILA — President Ferdinand “Bongbong” Marcos Jr. has urged Kingdom of Jesus Christ Pastor Apollo Quiboloy to attend the inquiries of the Senate and House on the alleged crimes he committed.
“I would just advise him that, just, kung mayroon naman siyang sasabihin, if … he has an opportunity in the hearings both in the House (of Representatives) and the Senate to say his side of the story. Kaya po sinasabi niya, hindi totoo lahat ‘yan, hindi totoo, walang nangyayaring ganiyan, ‘di sabihin niya,” Marcos said.
Earlier, the Senate and House issued subpoenas against Quiboloy.
Meanwhile, the President stood firm that nobody wanted to have Quiboloy assassinated.
“At pagkaganito, ano nangyayari diyan, hindi siya sisipot. ‘Pag hindi siya sumipot baka ma-contempt siya, tapos tuloy-tuloy. Ay naku, mas malaking gulo. Kung makapunta siya, sagutin niya lahat ng tanong, ‘di tapos na,” he said.
“That’s why my advice for him is to just face the questioning in the House and in the Senate. Marinig natin ang kaniyang side para malaman natin kung ano ba talagang nangyayari dito. We’re trying to be fair here and allowing him, an opportunity and fora to make his case. So, I think he should take advantage of that,” Marcos added.
Senator Risa Hontiveros earlier said that the Senate is open to the side of Quiboloy.
