BUTUAN CITY – Friends and relatives of school administrator, Emerito Samarca, arrived in throngs last Saturday to pay their last respects to the man who they fondly called as “Tatay Emok”.
Samarca, director of the Alternative Learning Center for Agriculture and Livelihood Development (Alcadev), was among those killed by suspected members of the militia group Magahat Bagani Force in Lianga town, Surigao del Sur last September 1.
