The mayor stated that Tan had submitted his resignation letter during the week. The exact reasons for Tan’s departure remain undisclosed, though local media have reported speculation about potential disciplinary actions. No official investigation has been announced.
This marks the second resignation in a month from the city’s administrative team. Earlier, the city’s finance officer had also stepped down amid similar allegations. The mayor has not commented on the implications of these resignations but has assured the public that the city’s operations will continue without disruption.
The situation has raised questions about the stability of Cebu City’s administrative leadership. Local officials have called for transparency and accountability in the wake of these resignations. The mayor has promised to provide further updates in the coming days.
The resignations come amid ongoing scrutiny of public officials in the region. Recent reports have highlighted concerns over corruption and mismanagement in several local government units. While no direct link has been made between the resignations and broader corruption allegations, the timing has sparked renewed debate about governance in Cebu.
