May 9, 2022 - The Youth Formation Division (YFD) strongly condemns the shooting incident that happened at Himamaylan, Negros Occidental.
This tragic incident happened to teacher Mercy โNeneโ Nequia-Miguel, a poll worker for this yearโs National and Local Elections and mother of the Himamaylan Division Federation Supreme Student Government (DFSSG) President, deeply saddens the YFD family.
We would like to reiterate that YFD strongly denounces any acts of violence toward our teachers and personnel, and even toward anyone, especially at this crucial time when we practice our democratic and civic duty through the national elections.
YFD extends its sincerest condolences to the bereaved family, friends, colleagues, and loved ones of the victim. Rest assured that the Department of Education (DepEd) is closely coordinating with the families of the victim to extend support and assistance.
Let us all pray for a safe, fair, and peaceful election for the future of our youth and all Filipino learners.
