Jimenez accepts post as ICAD co-chair, uses own blood to sign

Presidential Anti-Corruption Commission (PACC) Chairperson Dante Jimenez has officially accepted his position as the new co-chair of the Inter-Agency Committee on Anti-Illegal Drugs (ICAD)

In his press conference earlier at the Malacañang, Jimenez has used his own blood for his signature on his acceptance letter.

The new ICAD co-chair believes his long experience and skills were Pres. Duterte’s basis for his appointment.

Jimenez adds that he has been preparing measures to improve the campaign against illegal drugs.

“As co-chair of the ICAD, of course I have to first meet with the President because I requested for a meeting with the President. And after that, I’ll be meeting with my co-chair Dir. Gen. Aaron Aquino of the PDEA; and of course Sec. Catalino Cuy of the Dangerous Drugs Board,” he said.
