Narco-politics still exist in RP – Lastimoso
MAMBUSAO, Capiz – Narco-politics still exist in the Philippines thus the proliferation of illegal drugs is rampant, former PNP Chief Roberto “Bobby” Lastimoso said Tuesday.
Speaking before hundreds of students from St. Catherine Academy and Mambusao High School, Lastimoso said that some politicians are engaged in illegal drugs which destroy the bright future of the youth specially students.
He said that he wanted to serve his fellow Capiceños and once given a chance, his priority is to establish the rehabilitation center in Mambusao to cater to those drug addicts who need to be rehabilitated.
He also urged students to stay away from illegal drugs for their good future.
The anti-illegal drugs symposium was led by Mr. Angel Celino, a successful businessman.
Other resource speakers were Supt. Ricardo Alba, chief of the 605th Mobile Group; Dr. Leah Sicad, psychiatrist from Roxas City; Intelligence Officer I Ailine Jo Artuz of the Philippine Drug Enforcement Agency, and Mambusao Sangguniang Bayan Member Eddie Tupaz.
