Sen. Bong Go stressed the importance of respecting the Supreme Court's declaration that the impeachment case against Vice President Sara Duterte is unconstitutional. The SC ruled that the articles of impeachment were unconstitutional, preventing the Senate from acquiring jurisdiction over the proceedings.
Go, a Duterte ally, hopes the SC decision will promote unity in the country. He emphasized the need to respect the SC ruling for the nation's unity and the welfare of its citizens, especially the poor.
He supported his recommendation to remand the impeachment complaint to the House of Representatives, highlighting the importance of following due process. Go stated that the SC addressed concerns about the improper handling of the impeachment complaints against the vice president.
He urged the government to focus on more pressing issues rather than the impeachment case. Duterte was impeached on February 5, with grounds including violation of the Constitution and corruption. The Senate convened as an impeachment court but returned the complaint to the House to ensure constitutional safeguards were upheld.
