Marcos to Quiboloy: Face hearings, say your side of story

President Ferdinand “Bongbong” Marcos Jr. on Wednesday urged Kingdom of Jesus Christ (KOJC) leader Apollo Quiboloy to use the congressional hearings to answer the accusations being levelled against him and his religious group.

Interviewed by reporters before departing for Canberra, Australia for a visit, Marcos advised Quiboloy to “say your side of the story.”

“Kung sinasabi niyang hindi totoo lahat ‘yan (accusation), eh ‘di sabihin niya (if he is saying that the accusations are not true, then say it in hearings),” Marcos said. 

Both the Senate and the House of Representatives have issued subpoenas for Quiboloy after he skipped separate hearings on the alleged abuses being linked to KOJC as well as calls to revoke the franchise of Swara Sug Media Corporation, the legal operating name of Sonshine Media Network International, the broadcast media arm of KOJC.

Quiboloy, who denied the accusations against him, earlier said he would only face the courts.  —KBK, GMA Integrated News
