Dizon vows to ‘purge’ DPWH of `bad eggs’ amid flood control scandal
DPWH Secretary Vivencio Dizon has vowed to "purge" corrupt employees within the department amid controversies surrounding flood control projects.
Dizon appealed to DPWH personnel to help restore public trust by identifying and removing "bad eggs" from the agency.
He expressed his commitment to saving the DPWH by weeding out dishonest individuals, a directive he attributes to President Ferdinand "Bongbong" Marcos Jr.
This initiative was announced shortly after Dizon and Commission on Audit Chairperson Gamaliel Cordoba submitted fraud audit reports to the acting Ombudsman.
These reports detail irregularities in flood control projects implemented by contractors Wawao Builders, Syms Construction Trading, and St. Timothy Construction Corporation under the Bulacan 1st District Engineering Office.
