MisOcc leaders urge PNP for swift solutions on bombing incidents

 

Misamis Occidental—The local chief executives in Misamis Occidental called on police authorities to intensify and help solve the case of violent incidents happened during the last quarter of the year.

These incidents particularly are the IED explosion involving Governor Oaminal and his convoy last Oct. 15 and the hand grenade explosion in the house of Calamba Mayor Jun Villanueva on October 22, 2023.

The Provincial Peace and Order Council held its executive meeting to discuss the current situation and address the issues concerning peace and order in the province on December 19 at the Asenso Misamis Occidental Sports and Cultural Center.

In an open forum, Jimenez town Mayor Joselito Chiong asked the PNP how long they would expect the incidents in the province will be solved.

"All the mayors are quandary until now walay solution. We are given all the facts that you have gathered but again I am just your mayor, I just knew that you have intelligence funds to buy information that can help the assessment of the resolution of this kind of incident," Chiong emphasized.

In his response, Misamis Occidental Police Provincial Office Acting Provincial Director PCol Dwight Monato said that they do not have a timeline in solving a case because sometimes putting a timeline would encourage fabrication on the level of police officers but as far as the PNP is concerned, they want the case solved as soon as possible.

On the speculations of accusations of “Bomb me” circulating in social media, Monato clarified that based on their evidences and the statements of police personnel who were within the area of responsibility in Clarin, he can say that there is no indication that it is a “Bomb me."

Monato said that the investigating team assured that this case would be solved and would not be relegated to a cold case.

"I am involved in the investigation. I have already enlisted the support of my former colleagues in the intelligence community just to assist us in this investigation so we can give you the assurance that ‘May pag-asa tayo to solve this case,” he said.

As to the peace and order situation in Misamis Occidental, Monato said that the PNP is with the local officials in maintaining the peace in the entire province.

“I commit the entire police force of the Misamis Occidental Police Provincial Office to carry out maximum security operations to ensure the security of everyone, the local chief executives and other government leaders that we had in the province. We are with you and be assured that no harm will come from us, we are with you in this campaign to maintain peace in the province,” he added.

Governor Henry S. Oaminal, Chairperson of the Provincial Peace and Order Council, led the activity. It was attended by mayore, board members, department heads, and chief of police in the province.(SN/PGMO)

  In the heart of Misamis Occidental, Barangay Bonifacio in Calamba, there’s a government push for a transformative initiative—a testament that providing a quality public service to every Misamisnon is the primary vision of Governor Henry Oaminal. The provincial government’s water system project has become a lifeline for the residents in the province’s far-flung communities. For years, these people have been suffering from water scarcity, forcing them to exert extra effort to go through difficult digging just to acquire such essential life requirements. Tatay, a resident in the area, shared how hard for him to get water. He has to walk miles-after-miles while carrying heavy water containers rain or shine. When it’s muddy, it's harder for him to cross and trek the bumpy roads. He was teary-eyed while sharing his experiences. “I had to walk for miles, carrying heavy containers, just to fetch water. It was a grueling and time-consuming task. Our daily lives revolved around this quest ...
