By Vice President Sara Duterte emphasized Wednesday that the Philippines “deserves better” leaders, following the decision of the Supreme Court (SC) declaring the Articles of Impeachment against her as unconstitutional.
“Our country deserves better, and we shall stand tall, strong, and resilient against leaders whose greed will bring down our homeland. We deserve better,” the Vice President said in a statement.
This came after the high court, voting 13-0, declared the Articles of Impeachment against Duterte as unconstitutional, saying that it was barred by the one-year rule under Article XI Section 3 paragraph 5 of the Constitution. The SC also found that the articles violated her right to due process.
