A Testimonial Dinner for Chief Justice Davide

Former Chief Justice of the Supreme Court Hilario G. Davide, Jr. was honored with a Testimonial Dinner and Programme by the Province of Cebu headed by Governor Gwen F. Garcia and Vice Gov. Greg Sanchez with the members of the Provincial Board.

In his speech, Chief Justice Davide (Jun to his hordes of friends and relations) mentioned how he was being criticized after he accepted his new post as Presidential Adviser for political reforms. He defended himself as not being a lapdog of the president but only for public service did he accept the new post. Held at the Social Hall of the Provincial Capitol, the affair was very well attended and the guests were entertained by an array of local entertainers who impressed everyone no end!
