The investigation into Jojo Cadiz’s contractor conflict of interest

2025/12/08 10:54

MANILA, Philippines – After resigned congressman Zaldy Co published several videos, among them accusing President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. of earning kickbacks from corrupt infrastructure projects, investigators were quick to downplay them because they were not made under oath. Co is also evading an arrest warrant, and the President has dared him to come home, while denying the allegations.

Among the names Co mentioned is a “Usec Jojo Cadiz,” a Marcos-appointed undersecretary at the Department of Justice. Cadiz is a low profile undersecretary, but he was floated as a sure pick for either ombudsman or justice secretary. He has been with Marcos since the latter was a senator.

Rappler looked into Cadiz some more and found a conflict of interest. There is a construction company named after him, his wife, and his son. It is a contractor of the Department of Public Works and Highways (DPWH) with at least P250 million worth of projects, all in Ilocos Norte. The company is registered under the name of his son, who was just 19 years old during the company’s incorporation in 2023.

Cadiz’s resignation was announced the day after we published the story.

NGP Token Crashes 88% After $2M Oracle Hack

The post NGP Token Crashes 88% After $2M Oracle Hack appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Key Notes The attacker stole ~$2 million worth of ETH from the New Gold Protocol on Sept.18. The exploit involved a flash loan that successfully manipulated the price oracle enabling the attacker to bypass security checks in the smart contract. The NGP token is down 88% as the attacker obfuscates their funds through Tornado Cash. New Gold Protocol, a DeFi staking project, lost around 443.8 Ethereum ETH $4 599 24h volatility: 2.2% Market cap: $555.19 B Vol. 24h: $42.83 B , valued at $2 million, in an exploit on Sept 18.

The protocol’s smart contract had a critical flaw; it determined the NGP token’s price by looking at the asset reserves in a single Uniswap liquidity pool. This method is insecure because a single pool’s price can be easily manipulated. The attacker used a flash loan to borrow a large amount of assets.
