Iligan City Rep. Frederick Siao took exception to the claim of Manila-based journalist Raissa Robles that the Cagayan de Oro-Iligan-Marawi highway is not safe for travel during night time.

“Ms. Robles tries to substitute her opinion for facts. Her tweet has no proper attribution. She only surmises about the presence of barriers near police checkpoints. Barriers are normal features of checkpoints,” Siao, the mayor-elect of Iligan City, said in a June 10 statement. (We can’t deny that there’s a security problem in Marawi City and other parts of Mindanao before. But let me respectfully inform her that the situation has significantly changed. It is safer now. The police checkpoints here, like in Manila, are ordinary routine measures of the PNP and not because of any security threat,” he added.

“Travelers going to or passing through Iligan have nothing to fear about their security and safety. Tourists are most welcome and they are a big part of our shot at prosperity,” the lawmaker said.Infantry Brigade, said the government has planted the seeds of sustainable peace and development in the country’s lone Islamic City with the help of the residents.
