CEBU – The Philippine National Police (PNP) has named Brigadier General Valeriano de Leon as the new regional director Central Visayas.
This was confirmed by PNP spokesperson Brigadier GeneraL Bernard Banac, who said that Valeriano replaced Brigadier General Debold Sinas, who was transferred to the National Capital Region.
De Leon, one of the most respected officers in the organization, was the chief of the PNP Firearms and Explosives Office (FEO) and a member of the Philippine Military Academy Class of 1989.
“The hardest part of moving up to a new assignment is to say goodbye to people you’ve learned to love and treasure for almost two-and-a-half years,” De Leon said.
“Finally, I’m relieved of duty as chief, FEO. You know why I’m so relieved? I shiver every time I think of maybe retiring in FEO since I was assigned here in 2017. But at the end of the day, God is good because there is light at the end of the tunnel,” he added.
Colonel Westrimundo Obinque, who is De Leon’s deputy, is now the acting FEO chief. (Christopher Lloyd Caliwan)
