Cordillera - The Office of the Ombudsman (OMB) has suspended 89 village chiefs across the country for six months over anomalies involving the implementation of the first tranche of the social amelioration program (SAP).
DILG Secretary Eduardo Año said on a press release on Saturday that he had directed the municipal/city mayors of these barangay captains to immediately implement the OMB's order upon receipt and directed the DILG regional and field officers to ensure the orderly implementation of the mass suspension.
"Naway magsilbing babala ang suspension na ito sa iba pang mga lokal na opisyales. Ang katiwalian ay walang puwang sa ating pamahalaan lalong-lalo na pa ngayong panahon ng pandemya," Año said.
Año said that the Cordillera Administrative Region (CAR) and Caraga has the least number of suspended officials while the National Capital Region (NCR), and Region 2 tops the list of suspended barangay chairmans.
Only Region 12 has not recorded any village chief to be suspended among all regions.
In CAR, three barangay captains were suspended including Jimmy Cabiao of Barangay Quimloong, Bucay, Abra; Dennis Felina of Barangay Luzong, Manabo, Abra; and George Frederict Obal of Barangay Apatan, Pinukpuk, Kalinga.
