    “We communicated with the ever hard working Commissioner of Internal Security and Home Affairs, Hon. Samuel Aruwan, who acted promptly by coordinating the security personnel deployment,” the statement said. ACDA therefore, called on all Atyaps to be law abiding and always report suspicious characters to its leadership or security agencies.
