Interior and Local Government Secretary Jonvic Remulla expressed full confidence in newly appointed PNP Chief Police Major General Nicolas Torre III, saying he “means business” and is expected to deliver.

“Kapag sinabi ng Pangulo na ‘make the streets safer,’ makakasigurado kayo kasi very conclusive itong si General Torre,” Remulla said in a radio interview.

He praised Torre’s decisiveness and commitment to duty. “Ang gusto ko kay Torre ay tinatapos niya talaga ang trabaho at saka no excuses.”

Remulla shared that Torre’s dedication to protecting people stems from his father, a former police officer who died a hero in an assassination in Lutayan, Sultan Kudarat.

He confirmed that Torre has already received his marching orders from President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. and added, “Maganda ang rapport niya sa Presidente.”

With Torre at the helm, Remulla said the DILG looks forward to a renewed and stronger collaboration with the PNP.

In a statement, he added: “The Department is confident that Torre’s leadership will drive transformation, innovation, and strengthen the PNP’s mandate to serve and protect.”
