CAYETANO REJECTS CALLS FOR RESIGNATION
JUST IN: Senate President Alan Peter Cayetano rejects calls for him to resign in light of the escape of Sen. Bato dela Rosa and the standoff at the Senate.
“Ang message ko sa NBI hindi ninyo natibag ang Senado… kayo pumasok dito, kayo namaril tapos kami pagreresign ninyo, dapat kayo magresign,” he said.
He says no one from the 13-member majority bloc has spoken to him about attempts to unseat him as Senate leader. | @eimorpsantos
