MANILA, Philippines — Senate Minority Leader Franklin Drilon said on Monday that Aimee Torrefranca-Neri, newly appointed as an elections commissioner, should resign amid a bribery allegation that he said can affect the agency's integrity.

 

Drilon is a member of the Commission on Appointments (CA), a congressional body that has the power to reject appointments. 

 

President Rodrigo Duterte appointed Torrefranca-Neri, who previously served as Social Welfare and Development undersecretary, to the Comelec last week.
