ITINALAGA ang isa pang kilalang tagasuporta ni Pangulong Duterte sa mataas na posisyon matapos naman itong pangalanan bilang assistant secretary ng Department of Social Welfare and Development (DSWD).
Kinumpirma ni DSWD Secretary Judy Taguiwalo ang pagkakahirang kay Lorraine Marie Badoy bilang bagong assistant secretary ng DSWD.
“I am happy to confirm the news that Dr. Lorraine Badoy is joining the DSWS as Assistant Secretary. For now, she will be focal person of the Office of the Secretary in implementing the medicine assistance to drug dependents undergoing rehabilitation. President Duterte has allocated P1 billion for this,” sabi ni Taguiwalo.
Inihayag din ni Badoy ang pagkakatalaga sa kanya sa isang post sa Facebook.
“Asec. Lorraine is a doctor of medicine and has been assisting Yolanda-affected families for several years now in her private capacity. Asec. Lorraine brings to DSWD not only her medical skills but a spirit of service to the people marked by compassion and free from corruption,” dagdag ni Taguiwalo.
Anak si Badoy ni dating Sandiganbayan Associate Justice Anacleto Badoy, na siyang chair ng anti-antigraft court third division na duminig sa kasong plunder ni dating pangulo at ngayon ay Manila Mayor Joseph Estrada.
“Today though, I start a new chapter in my life as public servant at the DSWD and where I have a clear shot at changing some of those lives for better and with resources I’ve never had at my disposal all those years I did my thing,” sabi ni Badoy sa isang post sa Facebook.
