THE Metropolitan Manila Development Authority and the Commission on Elections will join forces next week in a major cleanup to remove all illegally posted campaign materials in Metro Manila.
MMDA chairman Oscar Inocentes said around 700 members of the MMDA’s Sidewalk Clearing Operations Group, Road Clearing Operations Group, and Landscape Management Office will begin the cleanup on April 19, backed by a security contingent from the Philippine National Police.
The MMDA earlier augmented its sidewalk clearing group by 200 additional personnel.
"This isn’t merely a show of force. We want all the political parties and candidates, whether they belong to the administration or opposition, to know that we are dead serious in implementing the Comelec policy against illegal posting of campaign materials," Inocentes said.
