A SENIOR citizen urged the Commission on Elections to cancel the registration of the Coalition of Association of Senior Citizens in the Philippines party-list group which won a seat in the May 2016 national elections.
Senior citizen Cecille Lopez complained that more than one million elderly Filipinos were robbed of representation because of the infighting on who should take the congressional seat they won in the last election.
The Comelec said that the Senior Citizens party-list is one of three party-list groups which have not yet been issued its certificates of proclamation (COPs) by the Comelec because of the issue of multiple nominees.
