SunStar CEBU EXPLAINER: After ombudsman resolved issues on CICC construction, COA questions on sale to Mandaue remain. Options: Capitol gets back property or two LGUs jointly manage it again. SunStar File January 08, 2021 LAST Wednesday, January 6, Cebu Governor Gwen Garcia announced at a Capitol press-con she would press for Vice Governor Junjun Davide, her predecessor, to explain the Commission on Audit (COA) finding on alleged irregularities in the sale of Cebu International Convention Center (CICC) to Mandaue City government. The three-story P830-million facility, with gross floor area of 28,000 square meters on 3.8-hectare lot, was sold in 2017, under Davide's administration. The sale for P300 million also terminated the joint venture agreement (JVA) between the two LGUs. The city owns the lot while Capitol built the edifice. Jonas Cortes, Mandaue mayor at the time, transacted on the JVA with Gwen Garcia, then the governor. Luigi Quisumbing, who succeeded Cortes, dealt with Davide on the sale.
