TACLOBAN CITY – The municipal mayor of Hilongos, Leyte says he happy to learn about the eradication of illegal drug trade in his town this after the arrest of eight of the 13 most wanted drug pushers operating in Hilongos.
Mayor Jose Emery Robe in a brief interview expressed optimism that in due time all those listed in the most wanted list would be apprehended by law enforcers in his town.
To recall, early this year the Number 7 and Number 8 most wanted drug pusher namely Ricardo Naul and William Malbas were arrested by operatives of the Hilongos Philippine National Police in different buy-bust operations in said town.
With this achievement of the Hilongos law enforcers headed by Chief Inspector Ramil Amodia, Roble said that he is hopeful that all those listed in the most wanted list will be apprehended to achieve their goal in making their town as a drug-free municipality.
“We will continue our fight against illegal drugs, and we notice that when we started this campaign slowly those who are into said illegal trade are not seen in the municipality anymore,” Robe said.
“This only becomes a problem because the previous administration didn’t do anything to solve the problem,” Roble added.
Roble added that based on the information they gathered on the source of illegal drugs, they were informed that illegal drugs come from nearby towns and some are from the province of Cebu.
“But most of them don’t really tell if where and who are their sources,” Robe said.
