MANILA: Philippines President Ferdinand Marcos Jr, who has been locked in a feud with Vice President Sara Duterte, disavowed an effort to impeach his deputy despite her apparent threat to have him killed.
Marcos’ office "has nothing to do” with the impeachment complaint filed Monday (Dec 2) at the House of Representatives, Executive Secretary Lucas Bersamin said in a statement on Tuesday (Dec 3). He referred to Marcos’ "unambiguous” remarks last week that an impeachment bid would be a waste of time.
