Unlike Sara Duterte’s, Marcos impeach complaint sent to Speaker's office in daysPresident Ferdinand Marcos Jr. during a phone call with then US President Biden and Japanese Prime Minister Shigeru Ishiba. MANILA, Philippines — Unlike the impeachment complaints filed against Vice President Sara Duterte, the one lodged against President Ferdinand "Bongbong" Marcos Jr. was transmitted to the House speaker's office just two calendar days after filing. “Pursuant to established procedure, the Office of the Secretary General has transmitted the verified impeachment complaint to the Office of Speaker Faustino ‘Bojie’ G. Dy III for appropriate action,” she said in a statement. This, however, wasn't exactly the case with the three impeachment complaints filed against Duterte in December 2024. Garafil said her office ensured the complaint was properly filed and recorded before forwarding it to the Speaker's office.
