POLICE arrested two suspected members of a big-time robbery group in a drug bust in Barangay Banban, Bogo City last Tuesday night.

The team led by Chief Insp. Richard Oliver, the city police officer-in-charge, caught Franklin Booc Araneta, 30; and Naice Velez Oporto, 34, at 8 p.m.

Araneta and Oporto were allegedly cohorts of Joel Sumabong, who was charged in court for allegedly leading a bank robbery in Bogo City in 2005 but was eventually acquitted.

Sumabong was arrested by the intelligence operatives of Cebu Provincial Police Office (CPPO) in a buy-bust last January.

The suspects are level two drug pushers for they can allegedly dispose of 200 grams of illegal drugs per week.

Municipality of Medellin Official Seal

THE municipality of Medellin, Cebu now has two roving nurses tasked to answer house calls and provide medical assistance to senior citizens in its 19 barangays, said Mayor Ricky Ramirez.

Medellin has around 5,000 senior citizens, said Ramirez. The 2010 census placed its population at 50,000.

“Mas nindot ni kay ang di kalakaw murag gi-door-to-door ang pag-atiman nila (This is good because it is like providing a door-to-door service to those senior citizens who can no longer walk),” said 66-year-old Angelina Mangubat, Office of the Senior Citizen Affairs (Osca) president and Barangay Dayhagon secretary.

Ramirez said that the blood pressure and vital signs of the elderly will be regularly checked by the nurses, giving priorities to those who are bedridden and on wheelchairs. He revealed that the nurses will use two motorcycles.

These nurses, who are also called mobile health care workers, are given barangay assignments where they would visit the homes of the elderly from Monday to Friday.

Bogo City's National Bureau of Investigation (NBI) Clearance Center is set to open today. 

The clearance center is located on the second floor of the old municipal hall,  just above the Bogo Water District office.  People from neighboring towns no longer have to travel to Cebu City to secure their NBI Clearance. The center is even accessible to clients coming from Leyte and Masbate. 

National Bureau of Investigation Manila ICT head Mr. Willy Abuan personally came to Bogo to install the NBI Information System Software at Bogo Clearance Center. A test run was performed last Friday with City Administrator Max Suico, City Councilor Jose Brainard Mayol (proponent of the project), City Human Resource Management Officer Slavsky Ybañez , and City IT Officer Roger Tonacao. The Freeman reported that today's event is just a soft opening and a formal opening will soon be scheduled. 

Mayor Celestino Martinez Jr. has been requesting the facility after the NBI Clearance Center in Tuburan seized operation.

Bogo City Fire

Nine classrooms were destroyed in Bogo City Central School 1 (known locally as Central 1) after being engulfed in flames last Sunday afternoon. The Freeman reported that the city fire department received the fire alarm at 5:06 P.M. The fire was declared under control at 5:45 P.M. and was declared completely out at 9:06 P.M. 

Bogo City Fire

The building that caught fire was a Gabaldon school building. Gabaldon school buildings are heritage schoolhouses built in the Philippines between 1907 and 1946. They are mostly made of wood and light materials which explains the fast spread of fire. It was also the same building that was rehabilitated by the Israel Defence Force after it was severely damaged by super typhoon Yolanda in November last year. 

Bogo City Fire

The fire department has estimated the damage at Php 2.5 Million. Fire investigators are still looking into the possible cause of the fire. The social hall, the library and some tents will be utilized as temporary classrooms for the 392 students that were affected.

Oath-taking of Tabogon's BADAC
source: cebu.gov.ph
The Municipality of Tabogon activated its Barangay Anti-Drug Abuse Council (BADAC) for each of the town's 25 barangays. This will serve as its first line of defense against illegal drugs.

Joey Herrera, Executive Director of the Cebu Provincial Anti-Drug Abuse Commission (CPADAC), assured that the Province is willing to help and assist BADAC in its effort to repress illegal drug activities. He said that BADACs must be strong-willed in informing the municipal mayor and police chief of any suspected activities.

Tabogon’s municipal anti-drug abuse council is headed by Mayor Zigfred Duterte and co-headed by town’s police chief Insp. Bonifacio Pareja.

“You are the town’s front-liners in terms of information and action. Without your support, we cannot achieve our goals in our campaign against illegal drugs. The same goes for the Province and PDEA,” said Duterte.

The mayor said that illegal drugs were rampant in the town long before he became a public official. He said that illegal drug activities has been minimized through cooperation with local police.

Liga ng Barangay(LnB) - Tabogon Chapter was encouraged to activate BADACs after understading the drug situation in the Province of Cebu during the LnB-Cebu Annual General Assembly where the Provincial Government in partnership with the Ramon Aboitiz Foundation Inc. (RAFI) formally launched the Just Say No program of CPADAC.

The program aims to unify local government officials, law enforcement agencies, youth, schools, parents, businesses and local media to fight drug menace.

A CAPITOL-OWNED pickup truck hit a couple on a motorcycle, killing a 50-year-old man and injuring his wife last Sunday night in Barangay Don Pedro Rodriguez, Bogo City.

Felix Mirambel died inside the trauma center of the Vicente Sotto Memorial Medical Center (VSMMC) in Cebu City at 2:52 p.m. yesterday, said his nephew Edgar.

Edgar said his aunt, Marites, who was Felix’s passenger, fractured some bones. She underwent surgery yesterday and is scheduled for another operation today, he said.

Edgar told Sun.Star Cebu that Capitol chief security officer Loy Anthony Madrigal was riding the pickup truck (license plate SJC-600) when the accident occurred.

Gov. Hilario Davide III said he placed Madrigal under a 15-day preventive suspension starting yesterday as the Committee on Discipline and Investigation (Codi) will investigate him over the accident.

...

Edgar said Madrigal’s group allegedly pointed a gun at his aunt and uncle. “Nisiyagit akong iyaan og tabang. Nitapok na ang mga tawo mao tong nadala sila (My aunt shouted for help. Because of the crowd, my aunt and uncle were brought to the hospital),”

168 Million for Northern Cebu Towns

Twelve northern Cebu towns were given 168 million pesos to fix government buildings, build emergency shelter and develop resettlement areas for Yolanda survivors. The financial assistance came from three government agencies: Department of Interior and Local Government (DILG), National Housing Authority (NHA), and Department of Social Welfare and Development (DSWD).

Sunstar reported:

This represents only the first tranche, said a recent progress report of the Provincial Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Office (PDRRMO).

The assistance is not part of the P12.2-billion rehabilitation and recovery plan for Cebu Province that President Benigno Aquino III signed last July, said Capitol consultant for rehabilitation and recovery Carmel Ulanday.

Yolanda ended more than 6,200 lives and injured about 28,000 people in the Visayas last Nov. 8, 2013, said a National Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Council report.

The typhoon also destroyed or damaged almost P40 billion worth of infrastructure, crops and agricultural facilities.

DILG’s first tranche of assistance was released last May 2. It was intended for the repair of municipal buildings, public markets and civic centers.

Ulanday said the second tranche will be for the repair of barangay halls.

Earlier, Regional Director Ananias Villacorta said the financial assistance distributed to northern local governments formed part of the Recovery Assistance for Yolanda (RAY) fund of DILG.

For its part, DSWD has given emergency shelter assistance to Madridejos (P66.4 million), Sogod (18.1 million) and Tabuelan (P9 million).

Other local government units in the country want to replicate a proposed ordinance in Bogo City which seeks to establish a system of disaster preparedness in the family, said an official of the Department of the Interior and Local Government.
Disaster Risk Reduction Management
Willie Jean Cabanag, focal person for Disaster Risk Reduction Management-Climate Change Adaptation Programs of DILG-7, said they will soon come up with a policy making Bogo City’s disaster program dubbed as Information Management in Preparation for Disasters or “I.M. PrepareD” as model to other LGUs in the country.

“Ang gi-push gyod karon is family disaster preparedness. Na-interested ang department ani sa good practice sa City of Bogo nga family disaster preparedness gyod ba. So gi-recommend sa DILG-7 didto sa central nga ipa-replicate,” she said during a Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Summit on Tuesday.

She added the scheme under the said program caught the interest of DILG Undersecretary for local government Austere Panadero during his meeting with the city officials in Bogo last July 14.

The Bogo City’s ordinance institutionalizing the I.M PrepareD program for families, barangays, schools and business establishment is now up for second reading.

DTI LogoCentral Visayas, June 22 (PIA) ---- The Department of Trade and Industry (DTI) – Cebu installed its
Business Assistance Centers (BAC) in Yolanda-affected areas such as in Bogo City and Daanbantayan town.

In a media release recently, DTI-Cebu explained that these BACs will function as the “little DTI” operating within the locality and will implement its flagship projects and basic functions within its geographical scope.
These centers will also function as DTI-Cebu’s contact point or administrative extension in the different affected LGUs and help in delivering and facilitating the necessary and immediate support services related to rehabilitation and recovery efforts for the industry, trade, services (ITS) sectors.

DTI-7 said the BAC installed in Bogo City and Daanbantayan will also aid in building and enhancing linkages with the local government units and conducting consultancies to facilitate the needs of the business sector.
Bogo City Mayor Celestino Martinez and the Daanbantayan Municipal Mayor Augusto Corro are actively supporting the project and are positive thate these centers will bring government closer to the towns business instead of the residents travelling to Cebu City to transact with DTI.

BAC personnel assigned in Bogo City will cover the areas within Bogo City, Medellin and San Remigio while personnel assigned to cover Daanbantayan will also include Malapascua Island.

Programs and services that will be coordinated by the BAC are Bottom-Up Budgeting (BUB), Shared Services Facilities (SSF), Streamlining of Business Permits and Licensing System (BPLS), Industry Clustering/Value Chain mapping, Green Growth and Disaster Resilience, Building Local Competitiveness and Investment Promotions.

DTI will also establish BACs in the municipalities of Sta. Fe and Sogod.

First order of business for BAC personnel is an updated profile of the LGU for identifying raw materials indigenous in the locality that can be used for skills training and livelihood development. 

For more information on the Business Assistance Centers, interested parties may call the DTI Cebu Provincial Office at tel. nos. 255-6971 or 255-3926. (mbcn/AYS/PIA7 with reports from DTI-Cebu)

LBC Hari ng Padala Logo
The LBC outlet located along P. Rodriguez Street in Barangay Libertad, Bogo City got robbed two days ago. It was the third LBC robbery this month following Barangay Tabok, Mandaue City and  Barangay San Nicolas, Cebu City. 

Two robbers entered the establishment shortly before 9 a.m. and reportedly  took away cash worth Php 70,000, a mobile phone worth Php7,000, and a pocket WiFi of one of the employees. SunStar reported that one of the robbery suspects, clad in sweatshirt, cargo short pants and a blue cap, pulled out a .38 revolver and held the three employees(manager Melecio Maitom and customer associates Angel Mary Estrera and Camelo Damos) at gunpoint.

Hermano Mallari, Bogo City police chief, interviewed by The Freeman thought there might be a backup waiting outside. The robbers fled on board separate motorcycles without plate numbers. Mallari also told The Freeman that it is likely that the robbers were not from the City of Bogo as they were not afraid of being identified. They reportedly did not wear masks to conceal their faces.
