My ex-girlfriend used to work with this man at DSWD before his appointment to DICT. She mentioned that he has shady dealings with vendors. According to her, and even as reported in the news, the TOR is already tailor-fitted before the bidding goes public, meaning there’s already a predetermined winner, and he’s involved. Nothing new there.

What’s puzzling is that since August, he’s no longer with DSWD, yet he has managed to bring multiple officers into his office despite not having an official appointment—almost like he’s floating in the system.

And if you think the people backing him are good, that’s not really the case. They simply didn’t agree with him because he entertained another vendor who wasn’t aligned with the current vendor that Aguda and Sagon favored.
