Rumors are circulating about calls from certain groups urging Pastor Apollo Quiboloy to run for a Senate seat in the upcoming Philippine elections.

Supporters argue that Quiboloy is eligible to run for any government position since he has not been convicted of the allegations filed against him.

However, there are those opposed to his candidacy due to the ongoing legal issues he is facing, including cases of child abuse, sexual abuse, human trafficking, money laundering, and his current detention.

Some individuals also believe that Quiboloy has the capacity to run for public office, citing his wealth and the millions of followers who support him.

It is worth noting that Quiboloy had previously announced his intention to enter politics before his arrest, stating his desire to lead the country amid ongoing challenges faced by his church and the current government.
