KINUMPIRMA ng Palasyo na si Pangulong Duterte ang nag-utos para magsagawa ng council meeting ang ruling party na PDP-Laban.
“Energy Secretary Alfonso Cusi as Vice Chairman of the ruling party PDP-Laban was directed by President Rodrigo Roa Duterte, who serves as Chairman, to organize, convene and preside over the council meeting,” sabi ni Presidential Spokesperson Harry Roque.
Ito’y matapos kuwestiyunin ni Senator Manny Pacquiao ang hakbang ni Cusi.
“This move, which is part of the democratic exercise, aims to consult party members and have fruitful and productive exchanges on issues affecting PDP-Laban,” dagdag ni Roque.
Si Pacquiao ang acting national president ng PDP-Laban.
