Babes Singson resigns from ICI

Former Department of Public Works and Highways (DPWH) secretary Rogelio “Babes” Singson has tendered his resignation from the Independent Commission for Infrastructure (ICI), ICI chairperson Justice Andres Reyes Jr. confirmed Wednesday.

“I would like to first announce the resignation of Secretary Babes Singson or Commissioner Singson, effective December 15, 2025. But could be extended to December 31," Reyes said.

“He mentioned the very intense and stressful ICI work has taken its toll on his aging body,” he added.

According to Reyes, Singson resigned “for health reasons and security.”

“Because he’s not used to this kind of life,” Reyes said.

Reyes said the ICI is waiting for Palace to accept the resignation.

Asked about Singson’s possible replacement, Reyes said he has no information on this yet.

“We have not thought of that. We have been very busy so we have not thought of that. Anyway, it’s not my concern. That is the recommendation of the President so I don’t know who it will be,” he said. —AOL, GMA Integrated News
