MANILA, Philippines — The Philippine National Police (PNP) on Wednesday said it had directed all police units to assist the Commission on Elections (Comelec) in securing voter registration for the May 2028 elections.

The exercise also covers registered voters seeking to transfer their records and individuals whose voter registration status needs reactivation.

PNP chief Gen. Jose Melencio Nartatez Jr. said he had tasked all police commanders to coordinate with the Comelec and local government units to ensure the safety and security of all registration sites across the country.

“We will work closely with Comelec and local government units in securing the voter registration process,” Nartatez said in a statement.

The poll body earlier said it expects an additional three million registered voters.

“Our police chiefs and commanders will ensure the strategic deployment of personnel and resources to ensure security at registration venues,” he added. /mcm
