The mother committee of the
Senate on accountability of the public officers known as the Blue Ribbon, formally
invited the Philippine Vice President to an examination on alleged overpricing
of Makati Building II this November 6 of 2014.
The said senate hearing will
start at 10oclock in the morning. This comes after Vice President said in interview
that he would now consider attending the said probe if mother committee not
just subcommittee will send invitation on him. He repeatedly insisted he will
not attend the said investigation, saying that it has been already prejudged
him.
Tuesday, the committee chairman
of the Blue Ribbon Senator Guingona said that the vice president would be extended
with all the courtesies befitting on his office. The said letter was already received
by Office of Vice President early Wednesday morning.
Binay's spokesperson on political
concerns Governor Remulla of Cavit said that the Vice President is presently
out of town and will be back this weekend.
Senator Guingona told reporters
that he has decided to invite VP Binay to the said hearing to prevent showdown
between Senate and Vice President at Supreme Court. He also added that committee
is "not clear" whether mother committee would take over the said
probe for Binay to attend it.
