An ethics complaint was filed at the Senate on Wednesday against Senate Majority Leader Vicente “Tito” Sotto III for his controversial “na-ano” remark during last week’s hearing of the Commission on Appointments (CA). The five-page complaint, initiated by eight women from various groups, was lodged before the Senate committee on ethics chaired by Sotto himself. ADVERTISEMENTIn the complaint, the women specifically cited Sotto’s “na-ano” remark during the confirmation hearing of Social Welfare Secretary Judy Taguiwalo at the CA last Wednesday, May 3. ADVERTISEMENTIt was also “alarming” that not a single member of the CA “corrected or commented” on Sotto’s remark, the complaint said. Sotto had already apologized to those who were offended by his “na-ano” remark.
