In response to online disinformation, Cagayan de Oro City officials confirmed that legal action is being coordinated with the Camp Alagar Cybercrime Unit and the National Bureau of Investigation (NBI) against perpetrators of black propaganda targeting the city mayor.
Acting City Information Officer Jade Adeser advised the public to rely exclusively on three official city Facebook pages to avoid falling for fraudulent announcements.
The official urged citizens to verify news content before commenting or sharing to prevent the spread of libelous claims.
Authorities emphasized constant public vigilance to ensure factual accuracy online.
