CEBU CITY – Controversy marred the “Pasigarbo sa Sugbo” (Pride of Cebu) festival when technical glitches hampered the performances of the contingents on Sunday night, August 27, at the Carcar Sports Complex in Carcar City, southern Cebu.

A CONTINGENT from Consolacion town, northern Cebu performs during the ritual showdown of the ‘Pasigarbo sa Sugbo’ festival on Sunday night, August 27, at the Carcar City Sports Complex in Carcar City, Cebu.

On several occasions, dancing contingents had to stop in the middle of their performances on stage when the music suddenly stopped.“I’m calling it a sabotage because by the very fact alone that Mr. Alberca did not care to divulge that his own daughter was a candidate for Pasigarbo Festival Queen,” Garcia said in a press conference on Monday, August 28.

Jhesidy is the daughter of the owner of the lights and sound system that the province contracted for the event dubbed as “Festival of the Festivals.” The non-disclosure of the owner of the lights and sound system that his daughter was competing in the festival was unethical, Garcia said.Carcar emerged as the biggest winner in competition as it ruled the ritual showdown and street dancing competition.
