A quo warranto is a legal remedy that is used to challenge a person’s rights to hold a public or corporate office.
At a briefing last Thursday, Reps. Bienvenido Abante Jr. of Manila and Zia Alonto Adiong of Lanao del Sur declared that it is imperative to ensure that public servants fulfill all the requirements for holding public office.
According to Abante, Guo should be stripped of mayorship if it is proven that she is not a Filipino.
“This is blatant already, this Bamban Mayor Alice Guo. (Based) on her answers, we must look if she is really a Filipino. She should not be mayor if she cannot prove her Filipino citizenship. It’s only proper that she be removed as mayor,” he said.
Guo is facing investigation at the Senate for her alleged involvement in the illegal operation of POGOs in the province.
Her identity as a Filipino is being questioned as her responses concerning her birth and family background were vague.
