NUP: Impeach bid vs Marcos baselessMANILA, Philippines — The National Unity Party (NUP) has rejected any move to impeach President Marcos, with party leaders saying they see no constitutional or factual grounds to support such a complaint. In a press conference yesterday, NUP chairman and House Deputy Speaker and Antipolo Rep. Ronaldo Puno said the issue was raised to him directly and his answer was unequivocal. Puno said that even at a preliminary level, the party could not find any basis for impeachment under the Constitution. “Actually, I don’t see any grounds for filing an impeachment case against the President,” Puno said. For the NUP, Puno said the absence of credible allegations makes the issue a non-starter.
