CAPITOL, Bataan, Philippines — In an apparent clear message to the vice governor of the province, incumbent Gov. Enrique “Tet” Garcia said there is no vacancy so far for the top position of Bataan. | |||
In a bid to clear the cloud of doubt regarding the governorship in the province, Garcia said he has never been remiss in his job as chief executive of Bataan even as he asked Vice Governor Efren Pascual, Jr. to reconsider his stance from “assuming as officer in charge governor.” | |||
Garcia’s action came in the wake of official two letters signed and distributed by Pascual last Jan. 31, declaring that he will assume the post of OIC governor and at the same time vice governor of Bataan. | |||
Pascual’s move raised eyebrows among provincial capitol employees and local newsmen based here since the governor is still governing actively in his capacity as governor of Bataan as proven by the number of documents being signed by him almost daily. | |||
“You will have to be informed that there is no occasion at all for you to make that assumption (of taking over as OIC governor). I have been in the continuous exercise and performance of my duties and functions as elected Governor of Bataan since the end of my authorized leave of absence on Jan. 12, 2012,” Garcia told Pascual in his letter, dated Jan. 31. | |||
This was not the first time that Pascual tried but failed to take over as OIC governor in the province, the first of which was last year after Garcia underwent successfully a heart-by-pass operation. | |||
Pascual has been rumored to be gunning for the governorship come 2013 election. | |||
