ZAMBOANGA CITY — Mayor Maria Isabelle Climaco-Salazar has called on the newly-elected barangay and Sangguniang Kabataan (SK) officials to help this city in accordance with the mandate of their respective positions.

“We thank all aspirants for the SK and Barangay elections. Henceforth, to all who have received the mandate in their barangays, I enjoin you all to help Zamboanga City,” Salazar said.

“By your collective efforts in responding to the individual needs of the barangay, may you include Security, Health and Education (SHE) as a priority,” she added.

Likewise, the mayor expressed her gratitude to the security forces, particularly the police and military, for ensuring the peaceful elections in the city.

She also thanked the Commission on Elections (Comelec), the election inspectors and tellers, and all government agencies involved in the elections.
