On the Notice of Relief issued against all 75 personnel of the PNP Police and Security Group

I confirm that on 22 July 2024, an Order was issued by the Chief of the Philippine National Police (PNP) relieving all of the 75 PNP Police and Security Group personnel that were previously assigned for my protection.

I want to assure the public that this Order will not affect my work in the Office of the Vice President.

Tuloy-tuloy pa rin ang ating trabaho upang makapaghatid tayo ng serbisyo sa ating mga kababayan — lalong-lalo na sa mga liblib o underserved communities sa ating bansa.

I do hope, however, that with this latest directive of the Chief PNP, we hear less cries from the people regarding the proliferation of drugs in the country, and that even fewer shall fall victim to various criminal activities. Thank you.
