NBI to summon LTFRB whistleblower

The National Bureau of Investigation has issued a subpoena to Jeff Tumbado, the former executive assistant of suspended Land Transportation Franchising and Regulatory Board chairman Teofilo Guadiz III, who recently recanted his allegations of corruption in the agency.

The group MANIBELA said the transport strike it declared for Monday, October 16 will push through as they want to express their concerns on the Public Utility Vehicle Modernization Program. However, the opposition lawmaker said before doing so, he needs to wait if the NBI will do its own investigation as requested by Transportation Secretary Jaime Bautista.On Wednesday, Tumbado backtracked on his earlier testimony that his former boss Guadiz received bribes, which had reached other officials in the Department of Transportation and even Malacanang.
