SA UNANG PAGKAKATAON MGA BAGONG SENADOR NG BANSA NAG TIPON-TIPON! SEN. SOTTO MANANATILING SENATE PRESIDENT?! PANOORIN
Incumbent senators and senators-elect have reached a consensus on the chairmanships of almost all the Senate committees in the 18th Congress, Senate President Vicente Sotto III said on Wednesday night.
With that development after a majority senators' caucus at Senator Manny Pacquiao's Dasmariñas Village residence, Sotto said he could have secured the support of most senators in the next Congress to remain Senate President.
Sotto said the incumbents and senators-elect have agreed on 95 percent of the committee chairmanships.
"We assume all is well. Just one or two committees na lang," Sotto said.
Senate Majority Leader Juan Miguel Zubiri was more confident in declaring Sotto's continued leadership in the next Congress.
