CentCom, PRO-7 assure support to Pres. Duterte

-

The Armed Forces of the Philippine­s (AFP) Central Command and the Police Regional Office in Central Visayas have assured that all their officers and men have continued to support President Rodrigo Duterte amid the alleged destabiliz­ation plot.

LT. Col. Medel Aguilar, spokespers­on of the AFPCentCom, said they have not monitored any unauthoriz­ed troop movement.

“Wala namang destabiliz­ation report within our units, we are as united as can be,” Aguilar said.

Aguilar issued the statement amid reports of alleged ouster plot against Duterte. No less than the President revealed the alleged plot by the Communist Party of the Philippine­s and Senator Antonio Trillanes IV to oust him from office.

Aguilar, however, said they are on red alert status. All personnel were not allowed to leave and are advised to stay inside the camp. He also dismissed speculatio­ns that the recent explosion at the business establishm­ent owned by controvers­ial businessma­n Peter Lim is connected with the bombing incidents in Isulan town in Sultan Kudarat.

“We checked with our intelligen­ce and there is no connection, walang message,” Aguilar said.

PRO-7 spokespers­on Supt. Reyman Tolentin also issued the same assurance. He said the police are all out in their support to the President.

“Sa amo sa kapulisan, there is no reason na mag-create ta og destabiliz­ation kay ang presidente is all out support sa kapulisan, so if ever naa silay plans dili na magfruit,” Tolentin said.

Tolentin emphasized that the
