Rider Partylist Rep. Ramon Rodrigo Gutierrez, a member of the House of Representatives' Committee on Good Government and Public Accountability speaks to the media on Sept. 18, 2024 after its hearing on the alleged misuse of funds by the Office of the Vice President, where he cited issues with the P500 million confidential and intelligence funds that were allocated to the OVP in 2023. He also said that based on his recollection, there were still no moves to impeach Vice President Sara Duterte over the use of confidential funds, and reiterated that the hearing was not a 'fishing expedition' with the aim of easing her out in the 2028 elections.
