"As far as I am concerned and as far as I know now, I’m quite confident that we are stable and the leadership of the Senate is well in place," he said.
He also addressed earlier rumors claiming that Senator JV Ejercito wanted to leave the majority bloc.
"Paulit-ulit si JV, he has said that before. He was interviewed and quoted two weeks ago, but after I explained the amendments and how they were placed in the budget, he settled down," Sotto explained.
He added that if asked now, Ejercito would surely deny plans to quit the bloc.
"So the issue being spread on social media and in some reports about Senator JV, I am very sure he will deny it now," Sotto said.
He also shared that he spoke with Ejercito recently regarding Senator Lacson’s plans, and said the latter sounded quite concerned.
Sotto ended by saying that no member of the majority bloc has any plan to leave their position.

Just recently, Senate President Tito Sotto explained why he refused to sign the request of Sarah and Curlee Discaya to be state witnesses in the flood control projects controversy. The senator said it would be unfair for them to get government protection while allegedly having taken public funds. Sotto stressed that to qualify as state witnesses they must return the stolen money and give consistent truthful statements. He echoed Pasig Mayor Vico Sotto’s remarks calling the Discayas liars and said their request cannot be granted easily.
