00:12The Justice Department says fugitive preacher Apollo Queboloy remains in the Philippines.

00:18Senators urge the suspension of Bambam Mayor Alice Guo due to alleged links to a raided

00:22Pogo.

00:23The MMDA clarifies its bike count on EDSA was obtained in one day and from one spot

00:28only.

00:29After four years, Joshua Garcia and Julia Barreto reunite on the big screen.

00:34And pop star Beyonce sends a gift to a two-year-old Filipino boy.

00:41The Justice Department says fugitive doomsday preacher Apollo Queboloy remains in the Philippines.

00:46The DOJ adds Thursday, April 25, prosecutors already filed a motion for a whole departure

00:52order against Queboloy and that he is already on the Bureau of Immigration's lookout list.

00:57Queboloy's former followers claim the group's fundraising efforts continue unabated in the

01:02Philippines and abroad.

01:04Reinita Fernandez, a former follower, says KOJC's street-level solicitations are ongoing

01:10in Singapore, masquerading as charitable endeavors.

01:14Former KOJC member Faith Killion says the fundraising is relentless as the practice

01:19is the default mentality in the group.

01:21They say KOJC workers raised funds as gifts for Queboloy, the self-proclaimed son of God,

01:27in time for his 74th birthday, April 25.

01:31His birthday celebrations featured elaborate floats, parades, carnival booths, and performances.

01:36Thousands attended, including prominent political figures.

01:41Senators Risa Juantiveros and Sherwin Gatchalian urged the Department of the Interior local

01:46government to preventively suspend Bambam Mayor Alice Guo due to her alleged links to

01:51the Philippine offshore gaming operator ZunYuan Technology, Inc.

01:56The Presidential Anti-Organized Crime Commission raided the Pogo's premises at the Baufu compound

02:01in Bamban, Tarlac last month.

02:03Juantiveros says the ocular inspection was a continuing discovery of Pogo's links to

02:08organized crime.

02:09Documents and other pieces of evidence point to Guo and other officials' involvement

02:14in the operation of the Pogo facility.

02:16ZunYuan is by far the biggest among the four Pogos raided by authorities since May 2023.

02:23Gatchalian says, as the findings of the PAOCC unfold, there are serious questions they must answer.

02:29The two senators reiterate their call for a ban on all Pogos in the country.

02:36MMDA Traffic Engineering Center head Naomi Resho clarifies, the number of cyclists on

02:41EDSA, 1,586, being quoted by acting Metropolitan Manila Development Authority Chairperson

02:48Romando Artes, was obtained by counting cyclists from just one spot of EDSA for one day on

02:53July 28, 2023.

02:55She also admits it is just a partial figure given the limitation of their count.

03:00Artes has been using this figure since March to justify the MMDA's opposition to proposals

03:05to widen EDSA bike lanes.

03:07On Wednesday, April 24, he also uses this to explain why the agency is considering the

03:12removal or reduction of the size of those bike lanes.

03:16Another major bike count study conducted by the Institute for Climate and Sustainable

03:20Cities yielded a much higher count of EDSA cyclists, over 7,800.

03:28After four years, former celebrity couple Joshua Garcia and Julia Barreto will reunite

03:33on the big screen with the film Unhappy For You.

03:36Star Cinema and Viva Films announced the reunion project will be directed by filmmaker Peter

03:41Sanvargas.

03:43The two, who dated in real life from 2017 to 2019, say they're excited to work together

03:48again.

03:49Adding, they're both okay despite their romantic history.

03:53Joshua says he agreed to the project right away since it's been a while since he has

03:57worked with Julia, noting they've matured since then.

04:00Meanwhile, Julia shares there were several attempts for them to work together again,

04:05but things only fell into place with this project.

04:08Star Magic also shares a look test for the movie, where the two protagonists see each

04:12other again after the breakup.

04:25Two-year-old Tyler just proved he's one of the luckiest Beyoncé fans right now.

04:29Tyler, son of content creator Bea Fabregas and radio host Nico Ramos, appear in a viral

04:35video where he repeatedly asks his mom about the singer's whereabouts, even asking if they'd

04:40be able to visit the artist.

04:45The video quickly garnered millions of views and eventually reached the pop star's team.

04:51Bea then posts on Wednesday, April 24 that Beyoncé's publicist reached out to them because

04:56the singer wanted to send Tyler a gift.

04:59She shares photos of her son posing with a green-stuffed animal and a bouquet of blue

05:03flowers, writing,

05:04"'Beyoncé and Tyler are now actually officially friends.'"

05:10And that's today's Wrap.
