Presidential Communications Office (PCO) Acting Secretary Jay Ruiz has debunked rumors of his departure from the agency, denying claims that he would be replaced or transferred to the Presidential Action Center (PAC).
Ruiz stated that he serves at the pleasure of President Ferdinand R. Marcos Jr. and expressed gratitude for the opportunity.
Reports circulated that President Marcos Jr. was seeking a new communications chief and had asked former journalist Dave Gomez to lead the PCO.
Malacañang has yet to confirm or deny these claims but reiterated that Ruiz remains the acting Secretary.
The acting PCO chief was reappointed to his position on June 16 after being bypassed by the Commission on Appointments.
Ruiz is the fourth person to lead the agency under the current administration.
