Migz Zubiri resigns as Senate President, Chiz Escudero takes over

Senator Juan Miguel 'Migz' Zubiri resigned from his position as Senate President on May 20th, handing over to Senator Francis 'Chiz' Escudero.

In a statement, Zubiri expressed that leading the Senate has been an exhausting and stressful job. He is known for his work ethic and dedication to public service, which he attributes to his father's influence.

Zubiri's resignation comes at a time when he was facing pressure over his handling of certain issues, such as the hero's burial of dictator Ferdinand Marcos.

Despite his congenial disposition, Zubiri has taken strong positions on matters that have angered him in the past. He is expected to continue serving as a Senator.
