Four police stations of the Quezon City Police District (QCPD) were recognized as best police stations in Metro Manila for keeping peace and maintaining law and order in their respective communities.
Four of the five most outstanding police stations in the National Capital Region (NCR) are under QCPD with Novaliches Police Station (PS-4) led by Lt. Col. Rossel Cejas bagging the first place. This was followed by La Loma Police Station (PS-1) under Lt. Col. Camlon Nasdoman, second place; Masambong Police Station (PS-2) under Lt. Col. Rodrigo Soriano, third place; and Galas Police Station (PS-11) under Lt. Col. Carlito Mantala, fifth place.
Meanwhile, Manila Police District’s Raxabago Police Station emerged as fourth placer.
The recognition were awarded to the station commanders during a ceremony at the NCR Police Office (NCRPO) Headquarters in Camp Bagong Diwa in Taguig City.
According to QCPD chief Brig. Gen. Joselito Esquivel Jr., the award is in recognition of the outstanding performance of the respective police stations in the “discharge of mandated functions in keeping peace and maintaining law and order in the community which contributed immensely to the accomplishment of the over-all mission and objective of NCRPO and the PNP in general.”
“These awards will certainly uplift the confidence and will boost the morale of our officers and men as they are doing their job in consonance with the directives of PNP chief Oscar Albayalde and NCRPO director Guillermo Eleazar for the implementation of PNP’s campaign against illegal drugs and anti-criminality programs,” Esquivel said.
