Maranan emphasized the importance of adhering to Marbil’s directives and committed to advancing the region’s efforts in combating criminality.
"We will align with the chief PNP's program thrust, 'Sa Bagong Pilipinas, ang Gusto ng Pulis, Ligtas Ka,' and intensify our anti-criminality initiatives, particularly in the fight against illegal drugs and criminal gangs, especially with the 2025 mid-term elections fast approaching. It is vital that we not only sustain but surpass the gains we have achieved thus far," said Maranan.
Maranan, a member of the Philippine National Police Academy Patnubay Class of 1995, was a former district director of the Quezon City Police District and PNP-Public Information Office chief.
He replaced Police Brig. Gen. Jose Hidalgo Jr. who retired after reaching the age of 56.
