Manila, Philippines - Six employees linked to the pork barrel scam queen Janet Lim-Napoles were fired according to Deputy Spokesperson Abigail Valte. The move was done as part of the "Matuwid na Daan" anti-corruption program of President Noynoy Aquino.
Janitor Robert Valdez said that he is surprised that he have no job anymore. He said that he don't know anyone named Napoles and he is not involved in the pork barrel scam. Other employees expressed their dismay over what they call hasty and unfair decision of the President.
Valte clarified that all fired employees have some connection with Napoles. She added that one security guard, two janitors and three cooks were fired because of the pork barrel scam.
"Our decision was based on evidence and every employee's records were studied well," explained Valte, "One of the janitors, for instance, is a brother of a friend of a friend of the high school classmate of the 5th degree cousin of Janet Lim Napoles. Other fired employees came from the same province as Janet Napoles."
The deputy spokesperson vowed that the president will continue firing palace employees that have any connection with Janet Lim-Napoles.
