Analysis by Raïssa Robles

I am inviting everyone to closely look at the set of accusations that has given legs to the perception that Budget Secretary Florencio “Butch” Abad is corrupt; that he tutored Janet Lim Napoles in the pork barrel scam. And that he is the pork scam mastermind.

All of these grew out of one thing: A statement – in the shape of two affidavits – by accused scamster Janet Lim Napoles. It is this same statement that makes people believe that the Disbursement Acceleration Program (DAP) – implemented by Abad – is also heavily tainted with corruption.
