Apollo Quiboloy Favor to Close University of the Philippines Elicited Reactions
Kingdom of Jesus Christ (KOJC) Founder Pastor Apollo Quiboloy has been criticized for his favor to close the University of the Philippines (UP).
After delivering a declaration in support of closing the UP, the famed designated son of God received various comments online. This comes after some university students threatened to take action or stage an academic walkout in response to their disappointment with the election results on May 9.
Quiboloy proposed the two alternatives he sees here in a statement to SMNI news. The pastor advocated for the university’s permanent closure. He also said that the government’s funding will be removed, making it a secular institution where students would pay their own tuition.
If the pupils and personnel of the stated school do any “blasphemy” against the Philippine constitution, according to the pastor, they should only be held liable by law because the government purportedly funds them. He believes this is the best answer since, despite being sponsored by the government, it appears to function as an independent nation.
Meanwhile, the stated students’ academic walkout movement continues to this day in front of the PICC in Pasay City, where the Comelec is conducting their national canvassing of votes on election day. The UP student regent recently called for an academic walkout to protest alleged electoral fraud on May 9.
Various organizations, councils, and students from various colleges gathered in front of the COMELEC to show their support for the youth’s position against the disputed election results. UPM USC will continue to oppose politicians whose campaigns are based on deception, intimidation, or red-tagging.
