CAGAYAN DE ORO — The City Council Committee on Social Services is set to give a copy to the Department of Interior and Local Government of a sub-committee report containing corruption allegations on the distribution of P767.8 million Councilor Joyleen Mercedes Balaba, chair of the social services committee of the City Council, said they would submit to the DILG on Monday the report of Councilor James Judith alleging that former Mayor Oscar Moreno, former city administrator Teodoro Sabugaa Jr.
“Our committee decided to submit the report of Councilor Judith to the DILG to be fair with him although we found that there was no evidence of the alleged corruption in his report,” Balaba said. Balaba said it was a pity for Judith to malign Moreno who had been widely praised nationwide for his handling of the COVID-19 pandemic.
Balaba said the DSWD region 10 had cleared Moreno during the investigation by the previous city council. “We have samplings of those who were on the list but did not receive any money,” Judith said in his report.
