ILIGAN CITY--The Task Force Piniliay (election) sent off on Monday morning troops from the Army's 2nd Mechanized Infantry Brigade for deployment to the different areas in Lanao del Norte and Iligan City to ensure peaceful and orderly elections.
Col. Alex Aduca, deputy brigade commander and the chief of Task Force Piniliay, said the troops are composed of three battalions and three companies.
During the send-off ceremony held inside the brigade's camp here, Aduca reminded the troops of three things: "Remain non-partisan and apolitical, ensure the security of all constituents, and ensure your personal safety.
"Hindi tayo pumapanig kanino mang kandidato, panatilihin nating magiging neutral tayo para hindi tayo malagay sa alanganin (We don't side with any candidate, we will maintain our neutrality so that we won't be put into trouble)," Aduca said.
The troops were also reminded to ensure the security not only of the voters and the candidates but also of those who are serving the elections such as the board of election tellers, and volunteers who will assist the board of canvassers.
The 2nd Mechanized Brigade covers Iligan City, which has 44 barangays and 184,058 registered voters, and Lanao del Norte province which has 506 barangays and 504,069 registered voters.
