(Eagle News)—President Rodrigo Duterte on Saturday, May 19, said he might just sack the chief of the Office of the Government Corporate Counsel.
He was apparently referring to Rudolf Philip Jurado, whom he appointed as government corporate counsel in April last year.
Duterte did not elaborate.
He said however that some individuals have entered government only so they could get enrich themselves.
Since he became President, Duterte has been consistent in firing government officials over alleged corruption.
Then-Interior Secretary Ismael Sueno and Budget Undersecretary Gertrudo de Leon, for instance, have been dismissed over such allegations.
