In a statement on Tuesday, Brosas said the President’s move to appoint Gadon “reflects the administration’s clownish approach in addressing hunger and poverty in the country.”
“Any move that will somehow improve the lives of the vulnerable sector, especially the poor, we welcome it,” Lopez told the Inquirer by phone. According to the high court, the preventive suspension on Gadon will “last until lifted by the court.”
