Cebu City-“Blatant Attempt”.Mao kini ang tubag ni Deputy Speaker Gwendolyn Garcia human siya nga gi-dismiss sa Ombudsman sa iyang serbisyo adlaw nga Lunes, Pebrero 12,2018.
Matud ni Garcia nga adunay kalambigitan matud pa ang impeachment ni Ombudsman Conchita Carpio Morales niini tungod kay usa siya sa mga aktibo ug na-involved sa pagpa-impeach niini.
Hayan obvious ug kadudahan ang nahimong desisyon sa ombudsman tungod kay nag-atubang kini karon og impeachment complaint.Matud ni Garcia nga mao nga gitaktak siya sa serbisyo kay para mapunggan ang impeachment.
Cong. Gwendolyn Garcia’s Facebook statement:
“The timing of the OMBUDSMAN’s Resolution to dismiss me from service is highly suspicious, and amounts to a blatant attempt to strong arm me into helping her escape impeachment by the House of Representatives.
Considering that I have been vigorously and actively involved in the dispatch of impeachment complaints such as the one against Chief Justice Lourdes Sereno, it is no surprise that Ombudsman Conchita Carpio Morales, who now faces an impeachment complaint against her, would want to have the impeachment complaint dismissed by strong arming key members of Congress such as myself. My dismissal from service at her hands makes her motivation far too obvious.
I have not even received a copy of the Resolution nor had the opportunity to file a reconsideration.
I note that the complaint in this case was filed by now Governor Hilario Davide at the height of the 2013 elections in an attempt to suspend me and influence the elections.
I certainly hope that the Ombudsman will act on my complaint regarding Davide’s criminal neglect of the CICC with the same vigor and haste, and that the public would see through the OMBUDSMAN’s blatant abuse of power to shield herself from being impeached and held accountable for her own questionable actions.”
Nasayran nga gitakatak si Garcia tungod sa giingong gipalit niini nga Balili Property sa Barangay Tinaan, Naga City, Cebu nga nagkantidad og P98.9-million kaniadtong Governor pa siya sa Cebu sa tuig 2008.
