Drug suspect killed, soldier wounded in Lanao Norte firefight
PAGADIAN CITY – Security forces killed a suspected drug personality in a firefight that left one soldier wounded in Lanao del Norte province in southern Philippines, an army spokesman said Thursday.
Capt. Clint Antipala, of the 1st Infantry Division, said Samolabao Tumog, a former village chieftain, was slain in Wednesday fighting in Nunungan town where policemen, backed by soldiers, were trying to serve a warrant to search his house following intelligence reports he was keeping illegal weapons and explosives.
Tumog opened fire on security forces with his automatic rifle and hitting a soldier. The former politician, who was also accused as drug pusher, was eventually killed.
“Government troops were about to serve the search warrant when Tumog immediately fired his M-16 automatic rifle that resulted into the wounding of one army soldier,” he said.
Antipala, quoting a report from Lt. Col. Rolando Orengo, commander of the 5th Mechanized Infantry Battalion, said the operation was launched after authorities arrested 3 suspected drug pushers Jalal Diambarang Tumog, Pano Tumog and Hami who pointed to Tumog as the alleged source of shabu in the town.
“Samolabao Tumog was neutralized in a follow-up operation after the apprehension of the three drug suspects”, said Orengo, adding, soldiers recovered Tumog’s M-16 rifle and two rifle grenades, including a hand grenade, magazines and ammunition.
Brig. Gen. Ezra James Enriquez, commander of the 2nd Mechanized Brigade, said the killing of Tumog will significantly reduce criminalities in Lanao del Norte.
Brig. Gen. Roberto Ancan, commander of the 1st Infantry Division, also, lauded the efforts of soldiers and policemen, saying: “Our joint law enforcement operation with other government forces is relentless in order to protect our people from lawless elements and sustain the peace and development in our area of responsibility.” (The Zamboanga Post)

Jackfruit eyed to boost Lanao Norte town's tourism
CAGAYAN DE ORO CITY - The Department of Tourism in Northern Mindanao (DOT-10) said it will promote jackfruit as a major town tourism product for Maigo in Lanao del Norte province.
DOT-10 officer John Baclig said the Department of Trade and Industry has already identified the tropical fruit as Maigo's preferred “One Town One Product” or OTOP enterprise for 12 years now.
OTOP is a promotional program of the government that aims to promote goods and products of towns, cities, and regions, and provides funding for small businesses.
Jackfruit, also known as nangka and langka, has been identified with Maigo town for so long already that the municipality even celebrates its own "Nangka Festival" every February.
Maigo Municipal Tourism Officer Flora Isla said the town produces an average of a thousand kilos every month, making the municipality the largest producer in Lanao del Norte.
Flora attributed the popularity of jackfruit in the town to the farmers from its 13 barangays.
Mayor Rafael Rizalda said the local government provides support programs for jackfruit farmers and encourages them to engage in farm tourism. "The local government provides jackfruit seedling to farmers for free upon submission of their proposal and livelihood feasibility," Rizalda said. Aside from jackfruit, Maigo is also known for its fine beaches, being a coastal town. (Ercel Maandig)
