Police Lieutenant Colonel Janette Rafter, CCPO’s deputy director for operations, said this means that police personnel will be placed on standby to respond to emergencies that may occur while the two celebrations are ongoing.“Sa atoang Charter Day, there are several activities prior to [Feb.] 24. Sugod niadtong Dominggo, anaa nay gipahigayon nga aktibidades, it is a weeklong activity. We have prepared [a] security plan ani nga mga aktibidades,” Rafter said.

Rafter said they will continue to provide security to the other Charter Day activities that are scheduled until Friday.
