Sen. Bong Revilla Foregoes Medical Consultation Trip To The U.S. For The Impeachment Hearings

SEN. BONG REVILLA was at the birthday party of Alfie Lorenzo at Century Imperial last Wednesday night. He came straight from the Corona impeachment hearing and was still wearing a suit. He said the feedback on the senate using Tagalog during the hearing is very positive. Earlier, we talked to his wife Rep. Lani Mercado who told us watching the hearing is a great learning experience for her.

“She just left today for the U.S. to accompany our son Jolo (Revilla) sa pagpapatingin doon about his recurrent migraines. Dapat kasama ako, kasi may migraine din ako, but I couldn’t leave. Duty calls dahil sa impeachment hearing. I told her kung ano ang ibibigay na gamot kay Jolo, yun na rin ang para sa’kin, dahil pareho lang kaming may migraine,” he laughs.

He says the hearings have affected the lives and schedules of all the senators. “Siempre, lahat kami, pinag-aaralan ng husto ang bawat anggulo sa kaso. This is history in the making and it’s nice to be part of history. We don’t want to fail the people.”
