After a recent meeting of Sipalay City officials, clearing operations along city streets, a response to a directive made by President Rodrigo Duterte in his most recent State of the Union Address, are currently underway.
“I encourage you to extend your patience in educating and reminding the citizens of the need to clear the roads,” Mayor Maria Gina Lizares said to barangay officials and others gathered for the meeting.
The meeting also resulted in the creation of a task force to oversee compliance with the presidential order.
Meanwhile, the mayor also assured peace and order would be maintained amid the ongoing clearing operations./WDJ
