Gov. Arthur Yap has filed inciting to sedition charges against three persons who are apparently critical to his administration, according to a post by Capitol’s staunch critic Willy Ramasola.
The governor confirmed the report in a telephone interview today, Oct. 14, 2021.
Yap filed the said charges against Ramasola, former Tagbilaran mayor Dan Neri Lim and newspaper editor Peter Dejaresco.
The cases were filed before the Makati Prosecutors’ Office, according to the governor.
The governor accused the three respondents of allegedly launching intense, systematic, incessant attacks to bring down his administration.
In a Facebook post, Ramasola maintained his innocence that he did not do anything against the governor to incite sedition.
“Paano ba ako nag incite ng rebellion or insurrection against Bohol government? Eh hindi naman ako Jose Rizal na makapag sulat ng El Filibusterismo? Puro Facebook post nga lang ako eh,” Ramasola wrote in a post.
At the same time, Ramasola chided the governor by saying that Yap should be booted out of office after the next election.
He ended his post by saying, “Mag tinabangay tang tanan mga Boholanos! Let’s protect and save Bohol from this corrupt Governor Art Yap.”
