He’s been described as a serial filer of impeachment complaints against sitting Presidents, but this time around, a congressman beat lawyer Oliver Lozano to the draw. ADVERTISEMENTLozano’s complaint, which referred to President Duterte as Du30, said Alejano did not have personal knowledge of the allegations laid out in his impeachment complaint. In his complaint, Lozano warned of a “violent confrontation and bloody revolutionary situation” arising as a result of the political crisis. Lozano filed more impeachment complaints against Arroyo in January and June 2006 and in 2008, all of which were dismissed. The one time Lozano filed a successful impeachment bid was when he became one of the individual petitioners in the impeachment proceedings against then Supreme Court Chief Justice Renato Corona in 2012.
