BACOLOD City Vice Mayor El Cid Familiaran said yesterday it is now the time for the village to change its officials who are not performing their jobs.
During the Vice Mayors League Conference in Manila last week, Presidential Adviser for Political Affairs Francis Tolentino informed them that the barangay (village) and Sangguniang Kabataan (SK) or Youth Council elections will push through on May 14, he said.
"There is already an assurance, so it's the time for us to decide whether to re-elect or not the incumbent officials, let the people vote," the vice mayor said.
He said the residents have now the chance to change their officials who are not doing their respective duties and responsibilities.
Familiaran said he believes there will be more candidates who will run for village posts because of its attractive benefits. (MAP)
