“This is a very tragic development, the Governor is really unhappy that such a young girl going out in search for a job could be brutally murdered.

“As you know, the governor always counsels young people against begging for a living, but to work hard to earn a living.

“Iniubong in that attempt to earn a living, this tragedy struck, the governor is so sad, it’s painful, a complete defeat of what the governor says often in his drive to take the youths off the street and get them equipped with skills and employment opportunities”, the SSG said.
