NBP finalizes plans for election day

New Bilibid Prison officials are making sure that the inmates will vote on Election Day on Monday. They have drawn up plans and are coordinating with the Commission on Elections for the security arrangements.

As part of the planning and preparation, there will be a drill or rehearsal sometime this week as a final check for election day. The prison officials’ security concerns are valid considering the recent incidents of violence involving guards and inmates. Last April 18, an inmate was shot dead after he had stabbed two prison security personnel, GMA News reported.
