In the latest episode of his podcast, President Marcos said he would select a new Ombudsman based on recommendations and results of the interview with the candidates.
"No, this is because we have to appoint a Ombudsman. Let us look at the recommendation, the findings et cetera, and then, the decision will be made," the President saidwhen asked to react to the senator’s claim.
"We’re not at that point yet. Let us wait for the process," he added.
Senator Marcos accused the administration of hatching “Plan C” through Justice Secretary Jesus Crispin Remulla’s application for the Ombudsman post, following failed attempts to oust Duterte through a people’s initiative and impeachment.
