NewsTranscript
00:00Until today, the contempt order of OVP Chief Of Staff Atty. Zuleika Lopez, who is confined in the Veterans Memorial Medical Center.
00:08It is not certain if she will be able to attend the House Committee on Good Government and Public Accountability.
00:15We will now call on the chairman of the committee, Manila Rep. Joel Chua. Good morning Rep. Chua.
00:24Good morning Egan and to all of your listeners.
00:28Do we have an update on if Atty. Lopez will be able to attend the House Committee on Good Government and Public Accountability today?
00:33We do not have an update yet, but of course, we expect her to attend later.
00:40Is there any information on if Vice President Sara Duterte will attend?
00:48We invited Vice President Sara, but there is no update on if she will attend.
00:55In her press conference, Vice President Duterte issued an order to transfer Atty. Lopez to the Women's Correctional in Mandaluyong at this time of night.
01:03According to her, this is an attempted homicide. Reaction please.
01:10The reason why we made this committee is because of the breach of security protocols and guidelines of the House of Representatives.
01:22If you remember, it has been two days since there was a tension or problem inside the House of Representatives
01:31because our Vice President did not leave.
01:34This was reported by the SAA or the Sergeant at Arms.
01:38That is the reason why we held a special meeting for the security risks that our Vice President is imposing.
01:49Whose order is that? It was instructed by House Speaker Martin Romualdez.
01:56That is not true because this is a report of the SAA to the members.
02:01Members have posted on Facebook the communication letters that were given to us.
02:14In fact, our Vice President requested to allow her to jog in the compound of the House of Representatives.
02:23That is why this is a bit alarming for the members of the committee.
02:27You yourself denied and accused VP Duterte of breaking his name, Congressman Chua.
02:37First of all, as a member and as chairman, what I'm doing is my duty.
02:43It is my duty to be the chairman of the committee.
02:49All decisions are made by the collegial body and this is discussed by all members.
02:57In all the interviews that I was asked, what I'm saying is factual about what happened in the committee.
03:07That's why I don't know why our Vice President is saying that.
03:13What will happen in the running of your committee, Congressman Chua?
03:24We received feelers yesterday that the four of them might give in.
03:32The four of them might give in. They are Pahangta and Acosta.
03:37If they give in now, we are ready for what will happen later.
03:45When will this last hearing take place, Congressman Chua?
03:49Is it clear that there is a mistake in using the confidants of the OVP?
03:55In our hearing, there are questionable things, such as their rental of safe houses worth one million,
04:07the funds they used in the Youth Leadership Summit,
04:13and there are various questions, including the letters that were sent to the officials of the OVP.
04:25All of these will continue. Our hearing will take place later at 10 p.m.
04:31If there are questions from all of our members in the committee, this will continue.
04:39Who will be the OVP that might give in?
04:44Is this a feeler or a positive reaction to your invitation?
04:49We received a feeler that they want to give in.
04:57The four of them are Paharda's wife, Ortonio and Gina Acosta, the SBO of the OVP.
05:09Your committee is becoming lost and found.
05:12You're looking for Mary Grace Piatos, Kokoy Bilyamin, and the killer of Speaker.
05:21We haven't talked about them yet.
05:24But Kokoy Bilyamin and Paharda, we submitted their names to the NBI and the PSA.
05:35If this really exists.
05:37If they're real people.
05:38Okay. Thank you very much House Committee on Good Government and Public Accountability Chairman and Manila Representative Joel Chua.
05:45Thank you very much also. Long live to you.
05:48We will do our best to get a statement from Vice President Sara Duterte.
