Negros Oriental 3rd District Rep. Arnolfo Jr. Teves has asked members of the House of Representatives’ Committee on ethics and privileges as to why they are singling him out, when there are other lawmakers who have been absent from their duties.
“Ayaw ko sana ‘tong sabihin eh, miyembro ako ng House of Representatives. Ilang araw lang ba ako nag-absent, bigla akong ike-kwestyon sa ethics committee. Ganito na lang para patas ang lahat, bakit hindi natin ilabas ang record ng attendance ng buong 17th, 18th, at 19th Congress?” he dared.
“Why did I include the other Congresses? Because during the 18th Congress I was a deputy speaker. You know, even during the height of the pandemic, I was going to work physically even if it was not my turn to preside over the session, because I live nearby, and I’m eager to help,” Teves said in Filipino.
