Digong sinipa si Evasco sa NFA council
MANILA, Philippines — Ipinatanggal ni Pangulong Rodrigo Duterte si Cabinet Secretary Leoncio Evasco Jr. sa National Food Authority (NFA) Council, habang ibinalik na ang NFA sa ilalim ng Department of Agriculture (DA).
Natanggal si Evasco kasunod ng mga ulat na pagtatalo sa pagitan nila ni NFA administrator Jason Aquino tungkol sa rice importation kasabay ng kakulangan ng supply ng bigas.
Ibinaba ni Duterte ang desisyon sa Cabinet meeting kagabi sa Malacañan Palace.
