He branded as false and misleading online posts claiming that the AFP was mobilizing troops in response to recent developments.
"Before I end, allow me to take this opportunity to remind our soldiers in the AFP to continue to be professional and competent," Brawner said yesterday at the launch of the 18-Day Campaign to End Violence Against Women 2024 at Camp Aguinaldo.
"In the past days, we have seen a myriad of events that transpired in our country and this has shaken the political environment of our country. As soldiers, we should not be shaken by this," he said.
He emphasized the AFP personnel's oath is to defend the Constitution and follow the chain of command.
"That means that we have to follow the chain of command. So we declare we are loyal to our country, we are loyal to our flag, we are loyal to our organization and we are loyal to the Constitution. This also goes to say that we are loyal to the duly constituted authorities, whoever that may be," Brawner said.
"We've sworn to continue to uphold the Constitution and we have to keep this in mind so we will not be confused. Our mandate is very clear," he added.
