The simmering Fort Bonifacio boundary squabble boils over as Taguig takes over the public schools in EMBO barangays long under the patronage of Makati.
The memorandum order directed the divisions concerned to “coordinate with their respective LGU counterparts for the smooth and orderly transition and turn-over of the management and supervision of the identified schools and personnel.”On the other hand, the Makati City government denounced Taguig for “attempting to forcibly take over several public schools located in the barangays affected by the Supreme Court decision.
He said that these public schools are properties titled to Makati and the city intends to file the appropriate criminal and administrative charges. In response to this allegation, Taguig said that the DepEd Superintendent for Taguig and Pateros asked the city to send security personnel to ensure the safety of students, teachers, and staff, and to maintain peace and order during the brigada eskwela.
Makati claimed that Taguig has rejected Makati’s offer to continue providing free uniforms, shoes, supplies, and other school needs of some 30,000 public school students in the affected barangays.
