‘Make supreme sacrifice,’ Go urges Duque: ‘Lumabas kayo ng malinis’

Senator Bong Go appealed to Health Secretary Francisco Duque III, as well as other concerned agencies, to immediately address the findings of the Commission on Audit “so any doubt regarding the use of public funds to address the health crisis can be resolved.”

“Make no mistake, sabi nga ni Pangulong (Rodrigo) Duterte, may tiwala siya sayo until the end pero mahirap na. You have already done so much for Filipinos,” the chair of the Senate health committee said, addressing Duque during Friday’s Senate blue ribbon hearing.

“We don’t want that because of issues about you, your output will be compromised, especially now that lives are at stake,” said Go.

“My word of advice is make the supreme sacrifice when the right time comes. For now, may hearing naman tayo dito sa Senate Blue Ribbon Committee. Clear yourself and the DOH, lahat ng empleyado ng DOH and address COA’s findings,” he said.

Go underscored the need for the truth to come out in order to maintain the integrity of the government and its personnel.

”Gusto ng tao malaman ang katotohanan. Importante, lumabas kayo na malinis, lumabas ka ng malinis,” he said.

“Mahal ka ng Pangulo at ipinaglalaban ka niya. Alam ko mahal mo rin ang Pangulo. Desisyon mo na ‘yan pagdating ng panahon,” he told Duque.

“But my advice is make the supreme sacrifice alang-alang na lang sa mga kababayan nating Filipinos. Naaawa na rin ako kay Pangulong Duterte, pinapasan na niya ang mundo at lahat ng problema,” he said.

In response, Duque said he will resign “if the times comes when I need to resign,” adding that he wished to clear the deficiencies flagged by COA first.
