BAGUIO CITY – Mayor Mauricio Domogan denied allegations percentage of the funds for asphalt overlay of Session Road went to the pockets of certain city officials including him.  

“That’s not true, paninira lang iyan, it’s purely politics” said Mayor Domogan saying the just completed asphalt overlay markings on the pedestrian lanes have faded away. 

Basing on the report of the Department of Public Works and Highways, there is a need to enhance the roads in the city and there is no reason why I should oppose the project if it is for the benefit of the people of Baguio said the mayor.  

Domogan said the Session Road asphalt overlay of the Department of Public Works and Highways was funded by the national government  in which the city has no control over it. 

“The DPWH should review and look at the flaws of the project,” he said.

The mayor said the public should assess the allegations of some people so that they will not be misled by erroneous information.
