El presidente Ferdinand Marcos Jr. ha nombrado al exalcalde de la ciudad de Iloilo, Jed Patrick Mabilog, como subsecretario del Departamento del Interior y Gobierno Local. El secretario del Interior, Jonvic Remulla, tomó el juramento este miércoles. Mabilog prometió su apoyo a la agenda de la administración.

El presidente Ferdinand R. Marcos Jr. nombró al exalcalde de la ciudad de Iloilo, Jed Patrick Mabilog, como subsecretario de seguridad pública en el Departamento del Interior y Gobierno Local el miércoles 13 de mayo.

El secretario del Interior, Jonvic Remulla, le tomó juramento a Mabilog esa misma mañana. Mabilog confirmó el nombramiento en un comunicado y prometió pleno apoyo a la visión del presidente Marcos bajo la agenda Bagong Pilipinas.

Mabilog había enfrentado acusaciones del expresidente Rodrigo Duterte en 2017, quien lo vinculó con drogas ilegales. Mabilog partió al exilio en Estados Unidos y regresó a Filipinas en septiembre de 2024. Marcos le concedió el indulto ejecutivo en enero de 2025, restaurando sus derechos políticos.

Remulla señaló que la injusticia que experimentó Mabilog impulsará su compromiso con la reforma en la gobernanza local en lugar de buscar venganza.
