    Tolentino: We have no control over stickers escorts put on vehicles | Inquirer

    Tolentino’s explanation came after the Highway Patrol Group (HPG) arrested two MMDA personnel over their unauthorized use of the police insignia as shown on stickers attached to their motorcycles’ windscreen and saddle box. The HPG, however, said the two MMDA staff were allowed to provide security to the senator.

    “The apprehended motorcycles are property of the MMDA. This is an internal MMDA matter. My office does not have any control as to what markings they attach on their vehicles, or even their helmets or belts,” the former MMDA chairman said in a statement.

    There's a new sheriff in town.

    Well, that a pretty big demotion from being the pnp chief to the mmda gm. Mas lalo na Ngayon na his track record is more relevant to police ops.

    Lots of former high ranking officials have taken a demotion when called upon to serve (some though for self-preservation), like VP Leni as mayor, Pres GMA to congresswoman, Pres Erap to mayor and Pres Digong to mayor (standee nga lang).

    You're right but I don't think it exactly was a voluntary demotion for Torre - like the other guys you mentioned , but it is what is for him.

    But he does need to keep himself in the public eye since it looks like he's aiming for an elected position in the next elections. His "man of action" persona needs to be fuelled and fed.

    And also, bbj needs to look good too since he has drawn some flack for essentially firing Torre out of the top cop position , hence, the mmda gm appointment. The Prez took a lot of hits there.
