President Marcos Confirms No Intention to Replace DILG Secretary Remulla Amid Speculations
A recent video circulating online claimed that Ombudsman Crispin “Boying” Remulla revealed proof that President Ferdinand Marcos Jr.is seriously ill and hospitalized.
The video, posted by a YouTube channel named “PINAS NEWS INSIDER,” featured sensationalist thumbnails and captions suggesting a USB drive contained damaging evidence about Marcos' health, even implying that Vice President Sara Duterte would take over.However, these claims are false.There is no record, in any official statements, media report, or Remulla’s channels, that he made such a claim.
The video actually features political commentary on a separate topic: the Ombudsman’s plunder complaint against former House Speaker Martin Romualdez and not Marcos’ health.AI image detection tools flagged the photo of Marcos in the thumbnail as likely edited.
Malacañang has also repeatedly debunked rumors of the President being seriously ill, noting his continued public appearances and activities, including exercises and press interviews.Previous false claims about Marcos’ health, such as hospitalization or cancer rumors, have also been fact-checked and debunked by Rappler.This article clarifies that the viral video is purely clickbait with no factual basis, aiming to mislead viewers about Marcos’ condition.
