QUEZON City, Philippines (Eagle News) — Senator Alan Peter Cayetano revealed that the anti-Duterte group allegedly plans to engineer a mass resignation in the Cabinet of President Rodrigo Duterte before the President’s second State of the Nation Address.
The plan aims to paralyze the government and oust President Duterte.
The group is said to be targeting those in holdover capacities or those who were appointed by former President Aquino, to join the mass resignation to stage a scenario of withdrawal of support for Pres. Duterte.
The senator also said that the group is also targeting officials who are set to retire and those who are about to be fired.
Cayetano also said that the alleged plan is in response to the failure of the so-called People Power rally to have enough warm bodies to mobilize against President Duterte last February 25, 2017.
