Barangay Captain fails to stop Gingoog City Federalism Forum

Saludo to all Astig Volunteers in Gingoog City, Misamis Oriental. Their information drive in Purok Quirino Maguindara, San Luis was stopped by Barangay Captain Alexander Mandamiento, accompanied by a DILG staff who is his relative and four policemen in uniform and two in civilian clothes for allegedly no permit. The people persisted in exercising their rights to peaceful assembly and succeeded in helping educate local famers and residents on the merits of Federalism. Such challenges face our HFMP members on a daily basis from feeble-minded local officials who obstruct change and abuse their powers to deny people of their basic rights to peaceful assemblies.
