TACLOBAN CITY – Vice Mayor Warren Hermano has taken over as acting mayor of Burauen, Leyte, following the six-month suspension of Mayor Fe Sudario Renomeron by the Office of the Ombudsman.
Mayor Renomeron was suspended without pay for signing a marriage certificate in 2014 without personally officiating the ceremony, an act deemed by the Ombudsman as “conduct prejudicial to the best interest of the service.”
Renomeron, who called the complaint politically motivated, vowed to continue serving her constituents despite the suspension.
