5 Arroyo Cabinet execs finally resign
Five of the members of Pres. Arroyo’s Cabinet have resigned in order to prepare for the May 10 elections.
Executive Secretary Eduardo Ermita said he filed his resignation on Tuesday, a day after the Supreme Court ruled that appointed officials running for the elections were deemed resigned.
Joining him were Justice Secretary Agnes Devanadera, Presidential Management Staff chief Hermogenes Esperon Jr., Budget Secretary Rolando Andaya and Ed Pamintuan, Malacanang’s point person in the urban Luzon beltway project.
Ermita said Augusto Syjuco of the Technical Education and Skills Development Authority (TESDA) had informed him on Wednesday night that he, too, was stepping down.
