00:01Vice President Sara Duterte's defense lawyer, Michael Poa, and Duterte's newly appointed spokesperson, Paolo Panelo, disagree over a remark about
00:08impeachment proceedings.
00:10It was prompted by Panelo's reaction to the Senate impeachment court's ruling that changed the voting threshold for conviction.
00:17Panelo says he isn't covered by the subjudicia rule and commented the proceedings have become a joke.
00:22He also mentions Poa's name, noting that the defense lawyer is being careful, and adds they may possibly raise the
00:28matter to the Supreme Court.
00:29That's not true. Actually, thank you for asking that question.
00:35Just to set the record straight, I didn't agree with him on anything as to lokohan or anything like that.
00:42So, well, I will just leave it at that.
00:46You know, he's the spokesperson of the Vice President, but I will not allow my name to be dragged into
00:50something na, alam mo yun, na wala naman akong kinalaman.
00:54Poa clarifies he defended himself because they are officers of the court, whether or not they agree with the tribunal's
01:00decisions.
01:01Poa clarifies he maintains a good relationship with Panelo despite the misunderstanding.
