The House of Representatives Committee on Good Government and Public Accountability has approved a motion citing in contempt Office of the Vice President chief-of-staff Zuleika Lopez for “undue interference” in the panel’s investigation into the confidential funds of offices held by Vice President Sara Duterte .

“I would like to seek reconsideration, your honor, of that recent resolution to cite me in contempt.
