Lorenzo 'Larry' Gadon has formally taken his oath as Presidential Adviser for Poverty Alleviation.
Gadon shared the photos of his oath-taking ceremony on his official Facebook page on Monday, July 10.
President Ferdinand 'Bongbong' Marcos Jr. led the oath-taking ceremony at Malacañang Palace.
"Maraming salamat, President Bongbong Marcos 🇵ðŸ‡," he captioned in the Facebook post.
In a separate Facebook post, the anti-poverty Czar thanked his team who he said supported him in difficult times.
"Mga magiging katuwang ko sa paglilingkod. Maraming salamat sa inyong suporta, #TeamGadon 🇵ðŸ‡," he said.
Last June, Gadon was named as the next Presidential Adviser for Poverty Alleviation.
His appointment drew flak, especially when the Supreme Court (SC) confirmed that it disbarred the latter for his "Misogynistic, Sexist, Abusive and Repeated Intemperate Language" against a journalist in a viral video.
But despite the disbarment order, Executive Secretary Lucas Bersamin earlier said that his status as a lawyer will not affect his work as an anti-poverty Czar.
Gadon first bared that he will be focusing more on projects concerning the nutrition of the youth, starting off with a feeding program called "BBM: Batang Busog, Malusog."
