PNPA valedictorian from Gensan gets LGU recognition

GENERAL SANTOS CITY (14 April 2015) - The local government unit of General Santos City led by City Mayor Ronnel Rivera gave a warm recognition on Saturday (April 11) to Police Inspector Dennis Yuson Jr., valedictorian of the Philippine National Police Academy (PNPA) Lakandula Class of 2015.

Inspector Yuson was welcomed by city officials headed by Mayor Rivera with a motorcade from the airport going to the Sangguniang Panlungsod building for a short program.

During the ceremony, Yuson expressed his gratitude to the local officials and generals (Gensan residents) who welcomed him at the Gensan airport.

Yuson also graced the City Hall flag raising ceremony Monday (April 13) at the Oval Covered Court.

"Today, there is another reason to be thankful because of the recognition given to me by the Gensan community," said Yuson.

"This is the first time that I will be sharing my thoughts as a police officer to the people of my hometown, and eventually leave a trail of inspiration to our beloved city of General Santos," he added.

He also talked about his awareness on the challenges he is going to face now that he is already out of the academy.

"Sa pagbukas ng pinto ng realidad at pagsasabuhay ng aking serbisyo ay sisilawin ako ng tukso," he said.

"Gayunpaman, naniniwala po ako na kung gaano kami sinanay ng buong husay ay siya ring tatag ng aking paninindigan na itakwil ang kamalian at pumanig sa katwiran," Yuson elaborated.

Mayor Rivera, for his part, said he is proud of Yuson’s achievement and lauded the Gensan native for being a great example of what the city’s youth can achieve with the proper guidance and training.

“Let us thank Inspector Yuson for proving once again that General Santos is really the home of the champions hindi lang sa sports pati na din sa ibang bagay,” according to the mayor.

Aside from being the PNPA valedictorian this year, Yuson also graduated magna cum laude from Notre Dame of Dadiangas University with the course of BSEd-Mathematics last March 2011.

The PNPA valedictorian is also a licensed math teacher before he entered the academy in May 2011. (Gensan CPIO/ Sharmagne Villacastin).
