In recent weeks, the search for Pastor Apollo Quiboloy, the embattled leader of the Kingdom of Jesus Christ (KOJC), has intensified. Known for his close ties to former President Rodrigo Duterte, Quiboloy has been on the run amid multiple legal charges, including those related to human trafficking and financial crimes.
Recently, social media personality and self-proclaimed “Pambansang Marites” Xian Gaza sparked speculation about Quiboloy’s whereabouts. In a now-viral post, Gaza hinted that Quiboloy might be hiding at Duterte’s resthouse. The post featured a video of Gaza dancing to Alan Walker’s hit song “Faded,” with the lyrics “Where are you now?” playing in the background. Accompanying the video was the caption: “QUIBOLOY SA RESTHOUSE NI DIGONG,” directly suggesting that the pastor may be under the protection of Duterte.
The statement gained traction online, especially considering Quiboloy’s known close relationship with Duterte. During Duterte’s presidency, Quiboloy was entrusted with various responsibilities, including managing some of the former president’s properties. Given this history, Gaza’s claim has further fueled speculations regarding the embattled pastor’s whereabouts.
While Gaza’s post has stirred conversation online, it remains unclear if his claim is based on credible information. As of now, no official sources have confirmed Quiboloy’s location. Authorities are still actively searching for the pastor, who has been elusive despite ongoing investigations and warrants for his arrest.
Supporters of Duterte, including Senators Robin Padilla, Bato Dela Rosa, and Bong Go, have expressed their loyalty to Quiboloy and the former president. The three senators have even conducted inspections of KOJC facilities to dispel rumors. However, no official findings have been released, and the police have continued their search.
As social media buzzes with rumors, the public awaits a response from Quiboloy. Whether or not he will address the allegations or surface to clear his name remains to be seen. For now, Gaza’s post has added another layer of intrigue to the ongoing mystery surrounding Quiboloy’s elusive presence.
