The Philippine National Police (PNP) will not let itself be used in partisanship and politicking
That was the reaffirmation of the Police Regional Office (PRO) Calabarzon as the May 12 election draws near.
In a recent media interview, PRO4A Regional Director Brig. Gen. Paul Kenneth Lucas said the PNP's first and foremost loyalty remains to the Constitution.
“We assure the people of Calabarzon that our police officers will remain nonpartisan in the upcoming May 2025 Midterm Local and National Elections,” the PNP director stressed.
Lucas also said that as per the regional police office's monitoring, there has not been any case of police officers in the region who are campaigning or affiliating with candidates "except in cases where they are providing security."
To ensure peace and order, PRO4A continues to conduct election checkpoints at various locations and boundaries throughout the region to prevent any threats to security during the election period and to ensure public compliance with the nationwide gun ban, which is in effect from January 12 until June 11.
Lucas also called for public participation in maintaining safety and order during the election, urging everyone to report any suspicious activities and remain vigilant throughout the election period.
