Pro-Impeach Sara Rally: Political Vloggers Unite Against Vice President Duterte
Wazzup Pilipinas
In a bold demonstration of unity and determination, the BUNYOG Party, together with approximately 80 political vloggers from diverse affiliations, will hold a Pro-Impeach Sara Rally on Saturday, January 18, 2025, at 1 PM. This rally aims to garner public support for the three impeachment complaints filed against Vice President Sara Duterte.
Diverse Groups Join Forces
Under the leadership of Atty. Ricky P. Tomotorgo, also known as Enzo Recto on social media, this unprecedented coalition of Kakampink vloggers, pro-PBBM vloggers, Iskonian vloggers, and other groups has set aside political differences to demand accountability. Atty. Tomotorgo, the Founder, National Chairperson, and First Nominee of the BUNYOG Party-list, is a highly influential political vlogger with a substantial following on platforms like Facebook and YouTube.
The rally is further strengthened by the participation of notable organizations like Magdalo and BAYAN, signaling a growing momentum behind the impeachment complaints.
The Complaints Against Sara Duterte
The impeachment complaints allege serious offenses, including the misuse of public funds and issuing threats against President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. On January 10, 2025, the House Secretary General confirmed that these complaints have been verified and are ready for further action.
Counter-Movements and Public Reactions
While the rally organizers aim to amplify their cause, they face strong opposition. On January 13, 2025, the Iglesia ni Cristo (INC) held a massive rally at Manila’s Quirino Grandstand, gathering an estimated 1.8 million members in support of Vice President Duterte. The Department of Justice, however, assured the public that the INC rally would not affect ongoing investigations.
Despite this, President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. dismissed the impeachment efforts, describing them as insignificant to the everyday lives of Filipinos. His stance reflects the deeply polarized political climate in the country.
Why This Rally Matters
The Pro-Impeach Sara Rally represents a critical moment in Philippine politics, as diverse political factions unite to hold a high-ranking government official accountable. The event underscores the power of social media influencers and grassroots movements in shaping public discourse and pushing for change.
Media Coverage and Opportunities
Media representatives are invited to cover this historic event. Photo and interview opportunities will be available, providing an inside look at the individuals and groups driving the impeachment campaign.
