March 01, 2021 ATTY. Jose C. Daluz III, former Cebu City councilor who headed the 2019 campaign that wrested City Hall from Tomas Osmeña s BOPK, has resigned from the city s ruling party Partido Barug.
In a one-page, three-paragraph letter to Vice Mayor Michael Rama as Barug president dated March 1, 2021, Daluz said his resignation was most appropriate as he was resolved to pursue the political party espoused by his late mother, Partido Panaghiusa.
Copies of the letter were furnished to Mayor Edgardo Labella and members of the City Council. A councilor confirmed Monday, March 1, to Bzzzzz having received the letter but withheld further comment until the Barug member could talk with colleagues in the party. Barug controls the Sanggunian.
