STATEMENT OF THE NATIONAL IRRIGATION ADMINISTRATION IN REGION 10
The National Irrigation Administration (NIA) Northern Mindanao Regional Office extends its deepest condolences to the family and loved ones of Mr. Niruh Kyle Antatico, who was a previous employee of the Agency.
We are aware of recent social media posts, raising concerns about certain NIA projects in the region. In response to these concerns, we want to reassure the public that these matters are being handled seriously.
The NIA Top Management has already initiated a comprehensive review and verification process in collaboration with relevant offices and appropriate authorities. This is not the first time such concerns have been addressed, and the Agency continues to prioritize transparency and accountability in all of its operations.
NIA Northern Mindanao does not tolerate any form of irregularity in the implementation of its programs and projects. We remain committed in upholding the principles of transparency, integrity, and accountability in public service.
We leave it with enforcement agencies that conduct investigation. We respectfully urge the public to avoid speculations and allow due process to take its course.
