During a media interview at the inspection and pre-construction works of the Metro Manila Subway Project, Ortigas Station, Sotto was asked if he would be willing to testify against the Discayas regarding the issue. He replied, “Wala namang invitation sa ‘kin sa ngayon (I have not received any invitation as of now).”
“Kahit sino naman po, hindi naman ‘yan sa kung gusto o hindi, kapag sila (Senate) nagpatawag, required po ‘yun (For anyone, it is not about whether you want to or not. If the Senate issues a summons, it is required),” he added.
