(UPDATE) THE Senate on Tuesday ordered the arrest of Kingdom of Jesus Christ (KOJC) Leader Apollo Quiboloy for unduly refusing to appear, despite due notice, at the hearings of the Committee on Women, Children, Family Relations and Gender Equality on Jan. 23, Feb. 19 and March 5, 2024.

Quiboloy merely sent his counsel to appear on his behalf, for which the Senate panel saw no justifiable reason — thereby delaying, impeding and obstructing the inquiry into the reported violation of human trafficking, rape, sexual abuse and violence, and child abuse.
