DAVAO DEL NORTE, April 20 (PIA)--- “The NPAs (New People’s Army)
will not do that.”
Regional Peace and Order Council (RPOC) chair, Davao City Mayor
Rodrigo Duterte this afternoon assured the public of NPAs
non-involvement of any trouble that would mar the 2015 Palarong Pambansa.
“I may guarantee, if there is any trouble, it could not come from
the NPA. They would not want to do it,” he said in a media briefing before holding
a closed door meeting at the Bulwagan ng Lalawigan located at the Provincial
Government Center in Mankilam, Tagum City.
He was with top heads of the military and the police at the
regional and the provincial levels, Davao del Norte municipal mayors of Palaro
billeting areas, and with his provincial counterpart, Provincial Governor
Rodolfo P Del Rosario, chair of Davao del Norte Peace and Order Council (PPOC).
He called on the NPAs to “stay away”, and “to stay out” as
he discouraged them from doing anything that would jeopardize Davao del Norte’s
hosting of the Palaro.
“Huwag muna kayong makialam,” he said addressing the NPAs but he,
however, welcomed them to “come and watch” the sports event.
Meanwhile, he said “there should be some kind of deliberate
restraint for everybody,” and hinted of government forces controlled action
against the NPA during the Palaro “because that would endanger lives”.
