In a bombshell video statement that threatens to ignite a constitutional firestorm, former congressman and longtime government contractor Zaldy Co has broken his silence, accusing the highest officials in the land of orchestrating a massive budget insertion.
Co, the man at the centre of the government's flood control scandal, alleged that President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. and former House Speaker Martin Romualdez 'masterminded' the insertion of P100 billion worth of projects into the 2025 budget, a plan he claims was delivered in what he 'believed to be' the President's own 'brown leather bag'.
