Communications Secretary Martin Andanar said police officers should remember and emulate the selfless act of heroism showed by the late Police Master Sgt. Jason Magno who died after he used his body to shield students, teachers and others from a grenade explosion late November at a school in Misamis Oriental.

Andanar made the statement after President Duterte posthumously conferred the Order of Lapu-Lapu, Rank of Kalasag to Magno when he visited his wake in Initao, Misamis Oriental sans fanfare early this week.

“Their selfless acts of heroism and bravery so they could protect the civilians went above and beyond the call of duty. It is something that is worth remembering and emulating by our other police officers,” Andanar said. “Guided by the courage and bravery displayed by both Magno and Balido, may we all be inspired to collectively promote safety and security in our country,” he continued.
