Undersecretary Zuleika Lopez will step down as Vice President Sara Duterte’s chief of staff after the House of Representatives concludes its hearings on the confidential funds of the Office of the Vice President, citing the emotional strain of the process.

Leaders of the House of Representatives rallied yesterday behind Speaker Martin Romualdez, dismissing Vice President Sara Duterte’s latest statement as a “desperate attempt” to shift public attention from her alleged misuse of P612.5 million in confidential and intelligence funds of the Office of the Vice President and Department of Education when she was the DepEd secretary.

Public school teachers are backing calls for the impeachment of Vice President Sara Duterte, saying revelations at the House of Representatives signal alarming anomalies surrounding her public spending as vice president and former education secretary.

Vice President Sara Duterte said that her remarks about threatening to assassinate President Ferdinand Marcos Jr., First Lady Liza Araneta-Marcos and House Speaker Martin Romualdez in a hypothetical scenario where she is "killed" should not be considered a threat.

After a standoff triggered by Vice President Sara Duterte’s attempt to keep her detained chief of staff Zuleika Lopez from getting transferred to the Correctional Institution for Women, the House of Representatives finally settled for hospital detention for the latter.
