Police chief to prioritize drive vs. illegal drugs
CEBU, Philippines – Newly-installed Lapu-Lapu City Police Chief Senior Supt. Anthony Obaneza said he will prioritize the campaign against illegal drugs.
Obaneza told The FREEMAN he bared his plans for the city during his meeting with Lone District of Lapu-Lapu Rep. Arturo Radaza.
Obaneza said Rep. Radaza wants him to go after drug financiers, pushers, and users.
"Mao gyud ang gusto ni Congressman Radaza nga mahatagan nato ug priority mao ang kampanya sa illegal drugs," said Obaneza.
Aside from illegal drugs, Obenza said he will also intensify the campaign against illegal gambling.
He admitted that illegal drugs and illegal gambling are the top two problems Lapu-Lapu is facing.
Former Lapu-Lapu City police chief Senior Supt. Mariano Natuel, Jr. also launched an intensified campaign against illegal drugs.
Although he made a number of arrests, some city officials were not satisfied with his performance. (FREEMAN)
