Their appointment papers were signed on April 30.

As early as December 17, Duterte had said he would give Dela Rosa the top BuCor post. Prior to that, he had extended Dela Rosa’s term as PNP chief by 3 months, saying he needed him for operations in Mindanao.

Guerrero had also gotten a term extension  as military chief before his appointment as Marina administrator, which Duterte had previously announced.

Guerrero will takes over the post left by Marcial Quirico Amaro III, who was sacked for supposed frequent travels abroad.  – Rappler.com
