I won’t try to impeach Leni – Duterte

PRESIDENT Rodrigo Duterte won’t try to oust Vice President Maria Leonor “Leni” Robredo, who has been criticized by his allies for “maligning” the government before the international community over the administration’s bloody anti-drug war.

Before leaving for Myanmar on Sunday afternoon, Duterte washed his hands of a threat by House Speaker Pantaleon Alvarez to impeach Robredo for her video message on the drug war before a United Nations anti-narcotics convention in Austria last week.
