A YouTube video is claiming the Supreme Court (SC) has kicked out House of Representatives Speaker Martin Romualdez, with SAGIP party-list Rep. Rodante Marcoleta possibly replacing him. This is false. There is no leadership change in Congress.
Uploaded on March 2, the video bore the headline:
“Korte Suprema sinibak na si Romualdez!! Marcoleta bagong House Speaker ng Kamara?!!
(Supreme Court removes Romualdez!! Marcoleta the new House Speaker?!!)”
