Tabuk City, Kalinga – The National Bureau of Investigation- Cagayan Valley now extends their services with regard to providing NBI clearance as it opens its Satellite Office in the city this December 22, 2020 with the City government of Tabuk providing their office in front of the people’s gymnasium.

During the program, Mayor Darwin Estranero’s executive assistant Henry Gupaal said the opening of a satellite office in the city is a good move as residents in the province will no longer have to travel to Baguio and Tugueguerao to avail the services of the agency.

“Importante talaga ‘to especially yung mga pumupunta sa abroad, those who are seeking employment, kailangan nila yun tapos yung mga humihingi ng clearance from the NBI saka yung mga nagpapatulong sa NBI kung may mga kaso, madaling puntahan ang opisina niyo rito. We don’t have to go up to Baguio, we don’t have to go up to Tugueguerao anymore so napakalaking bagay talaga nitong satellite office dito sa Tabuk,” Gupaal said.

In June last year, Atty. Dante A. Gierra, the NBI Director back then mentioned the plan of establishing a satellite office when he was invited as a keynote speaker during the 2019 Matagoan Festival and 12th Tabuk City Foundation Day celebration.

This gained positive response of then Tabuk City Mayor Ferdinand B. Tubban, now the governor of the province.

Tubban said the counterpart of the city would be the provision of fund for the construction of the office within the city hall compound.

NBI Regional Director Gelacio Bongngat during his talk mentioned that the provincial government during the term of then-Governor Jocel Baac donated a lot for the NBI provincial office site saying he talked with Congressman Allen Jesse Mangaoang regarding the establishment of a district office in the province.

An NBI district office according to him could provide the agency’s services such as forensic investigation, medico-legal, autopsy and all complements of NBI.
