INC rallies nationwide for peace, unity, and support for VP Duterte

Thousands of Iglesia ni Cristo (INC) members gathered nationwide for rallies advocating for peace and unity.

The Philippine National Police assessed that 1.2 million INC members flocked to the Quirino Grandstand in Metro Manila for one of the rallies.

Additional rallies were held simultaneously across multiple sites in the Philippines, including Cebu, Isabela, Albay, Bacolod, Iloilo, Ormoc, Pagadian, and Butuan.

A former commissioner of the Presidential Anti-Graft Commission, Atty. Nick Conti, praised the INC's initiative for fostering unity and harmony.

The INC stated the rallies were to promote peace and unity and support President Ferdinand R. Marcos Jr.'s opposition to the impeachment move against Vice President Sara Duterte.

The rallies prompted class and government work suspensions in some areas due to road closures and cellphone signal jamming.

The PNP and local police reported the rallies were generally peaceful and orderly, with no untoward incidents reported in most areas.
