Mandaue City Mayor Luigi Quisumbing ordered that the curfew for minors be strictly observed immediately in the wake of the bombing in Davao City.
This means that those 18 years old and below should not be out on the streets from 11 p.m. to 4 a.m., until the government lifts the red alert status imposed on the entire country.
The alert status was announced by Philippine National Police Director General Ronald “Bato” dela Rosa after President Rodrigo Duterte placed the entire country under a “State of Lawless Violence.”
Quisumbing also asked residents that all “non-essential visits to public places be minimized for the time being.”
“The PNP will also be conducting checkpoints in key areas of our road network,” he said.
The mayor called on the city residents to cooperate in order to ensure their safety and report any suspicious person or activity to the 911 hotline or the city’s command center.
“I would like to emphasize that there are no current threats to the city but I will also not allow any complacency,” Quisumbing said.
