According to De los Reyes, there is no politics in the mass oath-taking.
“Nasubo lang ko sa wala pagtambong sa uban. Wala mani pamolitika ang akoa kay ang ilang pagpanumpa aron ma-silyohan lang ang ilang pagserbisyo sa katawhan,†De los Reyes said.
The barangay captains that attended the oath taking had already taken their oath before first district Representative Gerald Anthony “Samsam†Gullas. (FREEMAN)
