Cebu Councilor Alcover Doubts Mayor Archival's First 100 Days Report, Criticizes Ongoing Programs
Cebu City Councilor Pastor 'Jun' Alcover has expressed doubts and criticisms regarding Mayor Nestor Archival Sr.'s first 100 days report and several of the city's ongoing programs. Alcover's comments have further strained the relationship between the two political figures.
Alcover has raised concerns about the City's rice subsidy program, accusing Archival's camp of delays and lack of clear implementation plans. He also criticized the cancellation of a skateboarding event at the South Road Properties, which he believes demonstrates the mayor's lack of independence.
The councilor has also taken issue with the reduction in monthly fuel allocation for ambulances, from 500 liters to 150 liters. He argues that this has negatively impacted services in mountain barangays. Furthermore, Alcover has questioned the creation of 40 special bodies, citing the lack of tangible results from the Garbo Asenso Sumbanan Alyansa sa Gugma (Gasa) special body.
Alcover has criticized the mayor's report for focusing more on promises than actual achievements. He doubts the accuracy and substance of the report, stating that it should reflect accomplishments, not just plans. However, there seem to be no official details or specific information about the 40 special bodies mentioned in the report.
Alcover's criticisms and doubts add to the ongoing tension between him and Mayor Archival. While Alcover argues for more tangible results and transparency, Archival's camp has yet to provide detailed responses to the allegations. The public awaits further developments and clarifications from the city's leadership.
