NBI Initiative
NBI Director Dante Gierran, a Rotary Club of Manila member, said the Bureau will keep pursuing graft and corruption cases and other crimes.

National Bureau of Investigation is determined to relentlessly pursue its investigation on crimes involving graft and corruption in government agencies, fight terror and protect society against all forms of criminal acts
According to NBI Director Dante Gierran, “I can say with much pride that the NBI is in the forefront of the fight against graft and corruption in our government service, with not less than His Excellency, President RODRIGO ROA DUTERTE himself calling on the NBI by name to investigate and act as lead agency in this fight.
Some of the most recent accomplishments of the NBI, just to name a few are: (1) PCSO graft and corruption, (2) PHILHEALTH insiders conniving with private hospitals on illegal payment improper charges for services not rendered (3) the apprehension of 2 BIR employees involved in corrupt practices caught during an entrapment operation at Pasig Regional Office.
The Director said that there are more cases under investigation involving unexplained wealth of government personnel of the Bureau of Customs and other agencies of government. Although graft and corruption will not be totally eliminated due to man’s nature to worship money, greed and temptation, he claims that the war on graft and corruption is won when the practice comes to a stand still and lessens within the framework of government.
As a developing nation, one of the greatest hindrances to our continuing economic, political and social development is the existence of graft and corruption within our government’s rank and file.
He stated the Bureau is committed to continue its multi faceted war against terror, environmental crimes, ponzi scheme such as KAPPA, and anti-human trafficking activities. The overall objective of the men and women of the NBI is to be credible to the Filipino people as the number one enforcer of the laws of the land.
Director Gierran thanked the Rotary Club of Manila for allowing him the opportunity to express the Bureau’s objective of bringing about a safer, just and more orderly society for the next generation of our countrymen. Director Dante Gierran is also a member of Rotary Club of Manila.
