THE Department of the Interior and Local Government (DILG) has appointed a municipal councilor to replace Alice Guo as the acting mayor of Bamban in Tarlac after the Ombudsman ordered her dismissal for grave misconduct.

Interior Secretary Benhur Abalos said municipal councilor Erano Timbang would temporarily serve as town mayor for three months after he took his oath of office at Camp Crame, Quezon City, on August 14.
