On Monday night, Defense Secretary Delfin Lorenzana confirmed via text message that President Rodrigo Duterte has appointed the former National Bureau of Investigation (NBI) director to replace resigned PhilHealth president and CEO Ricardo Morales.

Morales resigned due to his medical condition as he claimed he’s undergoing treatment for lymphoma or cancer of the lymph nodes.

His resignation came after the investigation of the alleged corruption within the state-run insurance firm.

Meanwhile, Saab Magalona earlier went to social media reacting to the statement of Dante Gierran, the new chief of PhilHealth.

She attached her reaction while retweeting the statement of Gierran via ANC who said: “I’m very scared. I’m scared because I don’t know the operations of PhilHealth. Unlike NBI, I knew the operations of NBI. But PhilHealth, wala. I do not know about public health.”

Her tweet which was retrieved by Fashion Pulis was then flooded with mixed reactions and comments from the netizens.

Meanwhile, in the said interview, host Karen Davila questioned the latter’s appointment and read one of the requirements to be appointed as PhilHealth chief.

While being honest for having no knowledge about PhilHealth, he stressed in the later part that he has a background on financial management- as he cited being a Certified Public Accountant and also about law, insurance, and investigation.
