Tabuk City, Kalinga – Balbalan, Kalinga Mayor Almar Malannag belied the content of the warning advising yBalbalans not to report to work or school in Tabuk due to the recent killings in the city.


The warning has been circulating on social media, implying the killings are tribal conflict-related and the advisory serves as a precautionary measure against possible revenge to be carried out by unknown parties.


In a press release by the Local Government Unit on Friday, September 9, it said the mayor was bothered by the fake warning circulating on social media and that received the same text message himself.

The press release added that the mayor is not even aware if there are meetings made by any party or groups in Balbalan and made decisions to issue such warnings.


“Our local authorities here too, are not buying the allegation that the suspect in killing that man was from Balbalan municipality being looked at by "tsismisas/tsismosos" as vengeance move against the killings which happened this week,” said the report.


As recalled, two men were killed in separate shooting incidents in the city on Thursday, September 8, 2022.


Meantime, Mayor Malannag advises the public to remain calm but vigilant.
