Jaime Santiago has submitted his irrevocable resignation as director of the National Bureau of Investigation (NBI), citing frustration with ongoing intrigues.
In a letter to President Marcos, Santiago said he will leave his post once a replacement is appointed.
He praised Marcos’ anti-corruption campaign and said his goal was to restore the NBI’s reputation.
Santiago also accused detractors of launching a smear campaign against him after he tendered his courtesy resignation following the elections.
Despite resigning, Santiago expressed gratitude to the President and vowed to continue supporting the administration.
