A ranking leader of the House of Representatives on Monday said threats and intimidation will not make members of the chamber reconsider their decision to redistribute some P1.23 billion in confidential funds in the 2024 national budget.

In an interview on the network owned by his religious adviser, Apollo Quiboloy, who is wanted in the United States for rape and human trafficking, Duterte said he told his daughter “to be frank” with the communists in Congress, including Castro. “This means we passed the COA review… All line items in our budget are subject to regular accounting and auditing rules and regulation,” House Secretary General Reginald Velasco said.

The House recently decided to divert some P1.23 billion in confidential funds from several government agencies to efforts to boost security in the WPS. Among the agencies that were stripped of confidential funds are the Office of the Vice President and the Department of Education . Castro said she is grateful for the House leadership as she said “this incident is a stark reminder of the dangers faced by those who dare to speak up and fight for the rights and welfare of the Filipino people.”

“I am against the Office of the Vice President being allocated the CIFs because the Vice President has no duty under the Constitution that requires them to secure our common defense. I have nothing against Vice President Sara Duterte. I am just against civilian agencies being accorded with secret funds,” he said.

Zamora is a member of the political party Lakas–CMD, as well as the local party Hugpong ng Pagbabago , which is the party of Vice President Duterte.
