In an interview, Manalao said that a few days ago, they had an assessment on the situation of the schools in their town.

"We need to know the real score and make documentations since we plan to submit our assessment to the Office of the Minister of the Ministry of Education, Mohagher Iqbal," the mayor said.

"We are more than thankful that peace and order here just keeps getting better each day. To further strengthen peace and order, the local government also tapped the Ulama League since we know they can be of great help," Manalao stressed.
