The National Bureau of Investigation (NBI) Tandag Satellite Office thru the efforts of Gov. Alexander "Ayek" T. Pimentel was formally opened last January 18, 2023 at the Provincial Capitol Complex, Telaje, Tandag City. 

The event commenced with a blessing ceremony officiated by Most Rev. Raul B. Dael, DD, Bishop of Tandag, which was followed by a ribbon cutting ceremony.

Surigaonons who are in need of an NBI clearance and other NBI services can now save time and money as they no longer need to travel to other neighboring provinces to secure said documents. The Provincial Government of Surigao del Sur also provided the needed personnel to man the satellite office from Mondays to Fridays, 8 a.m. to 5 p.m.

The establishment of the new NBI Satellite Office in Tandag City is indeed a testament to the great work Gov. Pimentel and all partner agencies are doing in an effort to bring the government services closer to all Surigaonons. 

Present during the ceremony were Gov. Alexander T. Pimentel, Cong. Romeo S. Momo, Sr., OIC - NBI Caraga Regional Director Atty. Sally Hans C. Barbaso, Provincial Department heads and other dignitaries.
