Comelec exec wants Marcos to submit notarized med certificate
An official of the Commission on Elections (Comelec) on Monday said she will require the camp of presidential aspirant Ferdinand “Bongbong” Marcos Jr. to present his notarized medical certificate following his failure to attend a preliminary conference of the disqualification cases filed against him last week.
First Division presiding Commissioner Rowena Guanzon said she would order Dr. Benedict Francis Valdecañas, Marcos’ attending physician, to submit a notarized medical certificate that was read by the respondent’s lawyer during the January 7 preliminary conference.
“Now I have to require the doctor who examined Marcos Jr to have his medical certificate notarized and indicate his medical license number,” said Guanzon in a report published by the Philippne News Agency (PNA) , based on Guanzon’s post on her Twitter account.
