Ombudsman indicts of Ex-congressman for P15M PDAF

June 14, 2017 by NewsLine Philippines 24 Comments

MANILA, Philippines—The Office of the Ombudsman  affirmed the filing of graft and Malversation charges against Rodolfo Antonino, the former representative of the 4th district of Nueva Ecija over the anomalous use of his P15,000,000.00 Priority Development Assistance Fund (PDAF) for 2007.

Ombudsman Conchita Carpio Morales has affirmed the filing of two counts of Malversation and two counts of violation of Section 3(e) of the Anti-Graft and Corrupt Practices Act (Republic Act No. 3019) against Antonino; former Department of Agriculture (DA) Secretary Arthur Yap; Alan Javellana, Rhodora Mendoza, Encarnita Cristina Munsod, Maria Ninez Guañizo, all from the National Agri-Business Corporation (NABCOR). Also indicted are Marilou Antonio, representative of Buhay Mo Mahal Ko Foundation, Inc. (BMMKFI) and Carmelita Barredo of C.C. Barredo Publishing House.

In his January 2007 letter, Antonino requested and directly endorsed NABCOR and BMMKFI to the DA as implementors of his livelihood training kits (LTK) project. On 22 March 2007, BMMKFI through Antonino, exclusively procured from C.C. Barredo 7,275 sets of LTKs worth P2,000.00 each or a total of P14.55million. One day after, or on 23 March 2007, the supplier allegedly delivered the LTKs in Roxas Boulevard which were accepted and acknowledged by Antonino.

Upon actual field verification, it was found that these were ghost projects as several local officials of Nueva Ecija denied ever receiving any of the LTKs. Neither was the project supported by any project proposal, physical and audited financial reports, monitoring reports or due diligence conducted in the supplier and NGO-selection process. There was also no public bidding or any procurement conducted for the project.

In affirming the charges, the Ombudsman ruled that “the motions for reconsideration are mere rehashes of the issues and claims previously raised by them and already passed upon by the Office.”

The Ombudsman emphasized that “in a Congressional Pork Barrel System, including the PDAF, it is the legislator who exercises actual control and custody of the PDAF share allocated to him.”-www.Ombdusman.gov.ph
