Dizon recruits Gab Go, says official to investigate EDSA busway overcharging
Metro Manila Development Authority (MMDA) Special Operations Group Head Gabriel Go pays a courtesy call at the National Police Commission headquarters in Quezon City on April 3, 202. Go issued a public apology to Napolcom Commissioner Atty Rafael Calinisan regarding the viral clearing operations incident involving a PNP officer. Maria Tan, ABS-CBN News MANILA — Department of Transportation (DOTr) Secretary Vince Dizon on Monday said he tasked incoming Assistant Secretary Gab Go to investigate reports of overcharging along the EDSA Busway.
Dizon previously mentioned during his inspection of the Antipolo LRT station on Nov. 4 that he was recruiting Go to join the DOTr.
Dizon said Go would work with Land Transportation Franchising and Regulatory Board (LTFRB) Chairman Greg Pua to look into the reported cases.
“Andito si Chairman Greg, andito si incoming Assistant Secretary Gab. Pinapaimbestigahan ko na kanilang dalawa ‘yung overcharging,” Dizon said.
Go currently heads the Metropolitan Manila Development Authority’s (MMDA) Special Operations Group Strike Force, which typically conducts road-clearing operations.
When asked which department Go would handle once he officially assumes his post at the DOTr, Dizon declined to provide details, saying the public would have to wait for the formal announcement.
“Incoming pa lang. Intayin natin. Basta sinubmit ko na ‘yung pangalan niya. Pero tumutulong na siya ngayon,” Dizon said.
Go has since been seen in several DOTr activities with Dizon.
