Former Ilocos Sur governor Luis "Chavit" Singson on Tuesday said his P100,000 reward offer to the Metropolitan Manila Development Authority traffic enforcers who flagged his convoy down for unauthorized use of the EDSA Busway was not bribery. Interviewed on Dobol B TV, Singson said he offered the reward money to "encourage" enforcers to apprehend motorists who were in the wrong.
The drivers were issued tickets for bus lane violation, an offense which carries a fine of P5,000 per vehicle. Following this, Singson offered a P100,000 reward to the traffic enforcers who apprehended his convoy. In a separate dzBB interview, MMDA Special Operations Group Strike Force chief Gabriel Go said that it is up to the upper management of MMDA to decide whether to accept the reward offer.
