DILG RECOGNIZES RICKY BULAHAN AS ACTING MAYOR OF BONIFACIO TO ADDRESS GOVERNANCE DEADLOCK.

Bonifacio, Misamis Occidental | Hon. Ricky Bulahan, who served as Municipal Councilor of Bonifacio, was appointed by Provincial Government of Misamis Occidental thru Governor Atty. Henry Sevilla Oaminal to assume the responsibilities and duties of the Mayor until further notice and duly recognize by the Department of the Interior and Local Government.

This decision was made after the PGMO and DILG found that the previous Mayor has been suspended from his duties for several months, leaving the municipality without a competent leader to address the concerns and needs of its constituents.

The DILG-PGMO has been monitoring the situation in Bonifacio, which has been in a state of political turmoil since the 2022 elections. The town has been facing problems with leadership and governance, which have resulted in delays in the delivery of basic services to its constituents.

With the recognition of Bulahan as acting mayor, the DILG-PGMO hopes to bring stability to the municipality and address the pressing concerns of its people. The agency has also advised all officials and employees of the local government unit of Bonifacio to cooperate with Bulahan and support his efforts to bring back order and progress to their community.

Bulahan, who has been a public servant in Bonifacio for many years, has promised to work tirelessly to resolve the issues affecting the town. He has reaffirmed his commitment to uphold the principles of good governance, transparency, and accountability.

The recognition of Ricky Bulahan as acting mayor of Bonifacio is expected to pave the way for the town's return to normalcy. Local residents are hopeful that with Bulahan at the helm, their town will overcome the challenges it has been facing and move towards a brighter future.
