Momo said the presidential assistance extended to El Niño-hit sectors is a big help to boost their recovery.
“Kaya ang pagbisita ng ating mahal na Pangulo dito sa atin ay hindi lamang pagbibigay ng ayuda kung hindi alamin din siguro ng ating mahal na Pangulo ang kalagayan at pangangailangan ng ating probinsya,” he added.

He said President Marcos’ gesture only showed the Chief Executive is the kind of leader who is willing to help uplift the lives of Filipinos.
“Kayo po ang Pangulo na tinitingala ko na may malaking puso para tulungan ang mga kapwa Pilipino dito sa ating bansa. I would like to assure President Ferdinand Romualdez Marcos Jr. that all the people of Surigao del Sur [are] in full support of your programs and administration,” he said.
