Two million pesos was the promised reward of President Rodrigo Duterte to those who can capture ‘ninja’ or policemen involved in illegal drug operations.
Pres. Duterte gave the instructions primarily to military and police to totally destroy the illegal drug apparatus in the country.
“Today, I might be inclined to place a reward on their head, the members of the ninja, or members of the police who are then protecting the drug syndicates in this country. I am placing per head two million and by there you might want to, ipagbili ninyo na mga kaibigan ninyo,” Pres. Duterte said in his speech.
The statement of the president was made during the commemoration of the National Heroes Day in the Libingan ng mga Bayani in Taguig City this morning.
President Duterte said, his administration’s anti-illegal drugs campaign is a war and not just a simple issue but should be considered a national security problem.
He also reiterated his promise to soldiers and policemen about taking full responsibility for any legal issues they may face in the course of carrying out his anti-illegal drugs campaign.
Aside from this, he once again promised eradication of corruption in government and criminality under his administration.
“I would destroy corruption in government and it will be done whether they like it or not. It will be a clean government at the end of the day. I said, I will fight criminality, drugs. Most of the criminal acts are really on the account of the drug menace.” — Rosalie Coz | UNTV News & Rescue
