President Duterte To Destroy Trillanes For 200 Consultants, Joint Accounts, Ghost Projects
President Rodrigo Duterte is tired of parrying attacks by
Senator Antonio Trillanes’ attacks against him and his family since last year’s
campaign.
This time, President Duterte is going on attack mode after
building up an arsenal of corruption charges against Senator Trillanes.
President Duterte is claiming that Senator Trillanes has
dozens of joint accounts with multiple Chinese co-depositors in Hong Kong,
Malaysia, Australia, and the United States.
President Duterte is also reviving corruption charges raised
two years ago by then Vice President Jojo Binay against Senator Trillanes who
allegedly hired consultants, including his brother, with an annual fee of half
a million pesos each.
President Duterte claimed Senator Trillanes has more than
200 consultants or more than the 55, Binay claimed Senator Trillanes had in
2015.
President Duterte is also bringing out claims that Senator Trillanes
used his allocation from the Disbursement Acceleration Program (DAP) for a
ghost lamp project.
“May kaso siya sa DAP. Abogado ako, just looking at it.
Inubos niya sa pamigay and he will have to answer also,” said President Duterte
in a media interview in Cagayan de Oro.
But unlike Senator Trillanes’ “garbage,” President Duterte
said his charges against the Magdalo leader were well-documented.
“Nandiyan ako sa gobyerno eh. So bakit ko kailangan ng
basura?” said President Duterte.
“All we have to do is to get the goods on him but… matagal
na ‘yan hawak ko,” he added.
President Duterte said he could not just lie down and let Senator
Trillanes annihilate him and his family.
“But you know, medyo sumosobra na kasi. Tapos na ‘yung
kampanya, and when I thought all the while na ganoon talaga politika. Pero ito,
he is bent on destroying me. So I destroy him or he will destroy me. Ganun lang
‘yan eh,” he added.
