UpdatePRESIDENT Duterte on Tuesday threatened Chief Justice Maria Lourdes Sereno that he would declare martial law if the Supreme Court would hinder his war against illegal drugs. Mind you, you are appointed by the government there in your office as chief justice at a time na wala ginagwa ang government. If this continues, pigilin mo ako, sige pag nagwala, would you rather that I declare martial law?” he added. Madam Chief Justice, you must be joking. Walang mga sheriff ninyo na naghuhuli,” Duterte said in a scathing speech against Sereno in Cagayan De Oro City.
