Birthday Message Calls for Accountability

This advice was part of Castro’s birthday message directed at the Vice President, emphasizing the need for transparency and responsibility.
Castro criticized what she described as diversionary tactics used by the Vice President, insisting that Duterte should stop avoiding the issue. “Instead of celebrating with more lies and political theatrics, VP Duterte should use this occasion to reflect on her actions and face the impeachment charges squarely. The Filipino people deserve transparency, not squid tactics,” Castro said on Saturday, May 31.
Impeachment Charges and Public Trust
According to sources familiar with the matter, the Vice President’s continued evasion and dissemination of misinformation only serve to weaken public trust. Castro highlighted the importance of respecting the constitutional process and encouraged Duterte to embrace accountability.
“On her birthday, we challenge VP Duterte to choose truth over deception, accountability over evasion. The impeachment process is constitutional and legitimate – she should respect it instead of undermining it with her desperate antics,” the outgoing lawmaker added.
