| | | | Hi there. Marcos says Quiboloy should face PH cases first
Televangelist Apollo Quiboloy must first face trial for the charges filed against him in the Philippines, President Marcos said on Monday, and any decision on his possible extradition to the United States is now in the hands of local courts.
So where did Quiboloy hide for 16 days to evade arrest? His followers are concocting tales to impart an air of mystery about their leader, claiming he was not in Davao but came from Cotabato, or was in the mountain but opted to surrender as the "ultimate sacrifice."
Due to the controversial escape of personalities led by former Bamban, Tarlac Mayor Alice Guo linked to illegal POGO operations, President Marcos has dismissed Immigration chief Norman Tansingco, though no replacement has been announced.
Sulu is not a part of the Bangsamoro Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao since the province had voted against the law's ratification, said a recent "immediately executory" Supreme Court decision that also upheld the constitutionality of the Bangsamoro Organic Law.
Nailbiter in the US: Just two days before Kamala Harris and Donald Trump hold their first—and possibly only—televised debate, the presidential race is neck-and-neck according to the latest polls, essentially making the historic contest a toss-up.

After Quiboloy: Are Dutertes next?
