“I am safeguarding our young constituents from being subjected to unnecessary vilification by striving to ensure that our youth activists — not communists — in Baguio are safe from persecution and harassment. Youthful activism does not necessarily mean espousing a communist ideology,” he added.
“To be accused that I have turned my back on my lifelong commitment against the CPP/NPA is a grave insult that sweeps aside my lengthy and loyal service to the Philippines,” he added. “What did he do? He ordered the removal of the posters showing that the Anakbayan and the Kabataan party-lists are CPP-NPA-NDF inclined. He had them removed from his city in Baguio,” Quiboloy said in Filipino.“He is a PMA graduate, but he ordered to stop the activities that are going against the Kabataan party-list, he ordered the removal, and sided with the communists.
“I was the Chairman of the Regional Peace and Order Council as well as Vice Chairman of the Cordillera RTF-ELCAC from 2019 to 2022. During my tenure, I have fully supported, without any mental reservation, the programs of the NTF- ELCAC. Through our collective efforts, the ELCAC program continues to succeed in the Cordillera, notably with stronger support from the local communities and better perception from the public,” the Baguio mayor claimed.
