Ikinalungkot ni House Committee on Dangerous Drugs chairperson at Surigao del Norte Rep. Robert Ace Barbers ang ulat na nagpositibo sa drug test ang 37 tauhan ng Public Safety and Security Office ng Davao City.
"Even Davao City where the number one enemy of illegal drugs resides was not spared. This shows us that the problem is indeed serious and the solution is not a walk in the park. We have to take a whole of the nation approach and everyone's help is encouraged. This bold display of arrogance by these drug syndicates is indicative of their mistaken confidence that they can bribe their way in and out of our system," sabi ni Barbers.
"As Chairman of the House Committee on Dangerous Drugs, I call on the PNP and PDEA to deeply get involved and eradicate the source of the illegal drugs in Davao City. Spare no one and leave no stone unturned in getting to the bottom of this mess," dagdag pa nito.
Nagpahayag din ng kahandaan si Barbers na tulungan si Davao City Mayor Sebastian Duterte sa paglaban sa ipinagbabawal na gamot sa kanyang lungsod.
"I understand this problem very well. I was once Governor of my province. I know where the local authorities are standing right now and the pressure they are in. I will gladly share to them any information that may come my way as Chairman of the committee on dangerous drugs. Fighting this together in a united front is the only way to succeed," sabi ng mambabatas.
"If these syndicates think that they can bribe all of us, they are terribly mistaken. What you have shown so far in using drug money to buy our lands, our officials, our electoral system and our people only challenges us more to fight back and give you what you deserve, the only language you understand, death, as I call on the government to immediately revive the death penalty and send these syndicates to the gallows," dagdag pa ni Barbers.
