00:00Act CIS Partylist Representative Erwin Tulfo
00:08The petition to disqualify Tulfo running in the election of 2025 due to becoming a political dynasty is now in the Comelec 1st Division.
00:19The Tulfo's answer to Sandra Aguinaldo's question.
00:22Act CIS Partylist Representative Erwin Tulfo
00:29Act CIS Partylist Representative Jocelyn Tulfo
00:32Quezon City 2nd District Representative Ralph Tulfo
00:36Partylist Nominee Wanda Tulfo-Tejo
00:38and Senatorial Candidate Ben Tulfo
00:41They are the members of the Tulfo family running in the election
00:45who wants to disqualify the Comelec of Attorney Virgilio Garcia, a retired AFP General.
00:51It states that the political dynasty is prohibited by the Constitution, particularly in Article 2, Section 26.
00:59It states that the political dynasty is prohibited based on the definition set by the law.
01:05However, the definition that it should come from the Congress is not expected according to the petitioner.
01:11It is not expected according to the interest of the Congress that 80% is from the political dynasty based on a study.
01:21The absence of a law to define the political dynasty is the answer of Rep. Erwin Tulfo against the petition.
01:29There should be a law. Unfortunately, the Congress and the Senate are not moving yet.
01:35There should be a defining law, enabling law. Otherwise, where are we going to start?
01:41Ben Tulfo's answer is almost the same even though he is against the political dynasty.
01:47As long as there is no defining law, enabling law, who will implement it?
01:52The Tulfos were also questioned in the petition on whether the Tulfos are national-born Filipinos,
01:57which is a requirement to be a senator or congressman.
02:00At the time of the petition, Congressman Erwin Tulfo was no longer able to sit as the DSWD Secretary
02:06due to the question of his citizenship.
02:08The petitioner is a running congressman of the 2nd District of Quezon City in front of Congressman Ralph Tulfo.
02:15According to the party list nominated by Tourism Secretary Wanda Tulfo-Tejo,
02:20the Tulfo family has not violated any law.
02:22According to the offices of Rep. Joselyn and Ralph Tulfo,
02:28they have not yet received a copy of the petition.
02:31But the petition could be politically motivated
02:33because one of the opponents of the election was elected by Rep. Ralph Tulfo.
02:39According to the party list nominated by Tourism Secretary Wanda Tulfo-Tejo,
02:41the first division of the commission has already held the disqualification case
02:45and decided on a new election in May.
02:48But the name of the Tulfos in the ballot will still remain.
02:52We will do our best to finish this.
02:54This is our commitment.
02:56If we say this is our timeline, this is our timeline, we will follow this.
02:59But even if they decide,
03:02this can still be raised in the Supreme Court so that the election can be reached.
03:06If their case is not decided on time,
03:11and if they are loved,
03:14or if there is a proclamation,
03:17and then there is an assumption,
03:19and it has been decided,
03:21we cannot do anything if the case is not dismissed
03:23because the commission will lose its jurisdiction.
03:26The jurisdiction will go to the Senate Electoral Tribunal
03:30if the opposition is a senator
03:32and the House of Representatives Electoral Tribunal
03:35if the opposition is a congressman.
03:37For GMA Integrated News, Sandra Aguinaldo, for Tutok Tutok, 24 hours.
