CAGAYAN DE ORO CITY – Authorities turned down a proposal to recruit a company of Civilian Armed Forces Geographical Unit to help secure the city from criminality and other threats.
“It is not time to have a regular force of [Special CAFGU Active Auxiliaries or SCAA] personnel to help the police,” said Councilor Romeo Calizo, chair of the Sangguniang Panlungsod’s police and public safety committees. The plan to recruit CAFGUs was laid out during the July 21 security briefing held by Acting Mayor Edgar Cabanlas when Mayor Uy was in Manila at that time.Representatives of Task Force Oro, an Army unit assigned to help secure Cagayan de Oro, said they lack the personnel and fuel to help the police in its law-enforcement duties.They suggested that the city government employ a company of SCAA personnel to augment Task Force Oro, which only has 30 soldiers and officers.
