Colombian president-elect Abelardo De La Espriella has issued a stern warning to leaders of dissident groups linked to the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia (FARC) operating in the Tolima department, demanding their surrender within ten days. During a regional coordination meeting held in Ibagué, the capital of Tolima, De La Espriella addressed a group of 47 mayors and emphasized his administration’s commitment to tackling insecurity, particularly crimes committed from prison. His remarks targeted several high-profile figures associated with criminal activities, including those who engage in extortion against local businesses, farmers, and transporters. The meeting took place at the governor's office in Tolima, where De La Espriella was accompanied by Governor Adriana Matiz and Ibagué Mayor Adriana Magali Matiz. The president-elect specifically named individuals such as 'Chapolo,' 'el Viejo,' 'el Enfermero,' and 'Piolín,' all members of the 'Iván Mordisco' faction. He also mentioned Eduardo Ortiz, known as 'Eduardo,' who leads the 'Calarcá' dissidents, and Ronald, a leader of the 'clan del Golfo.' De La Espriella warned these individuals they have "hours counted" and will face the full force of the law. In addition to targeting these armed groups, De La Espriella spoke out against common criminals operating from prisons. Among them were 'Tinejo,' currently incarcerated in Valledupar, and 'Cabeza de Hacha' and 'Chucho Rayo,' detained in Cómbita. De La Espriella announced plans to move these individuals to a location where even religious symbols would not reach, ensuring they could not continue their criminal activities. Governor Adriana Matiz highlighted the economic damage caused by 'Chapolo,' stating he has significantly impacted the region through intimidation and extortion. She announced a reward of 300 million Colombian pesos for information leading to his capture. This comes amid reports that approximately 600 families in Herveo, a municipality near the Nevado del Ruiz volcano, have been affected by threats from 'Tinejo.' Local officials expressed concern over the ongoing security issues affecting communities. Herveo Mayor Gina Vanessa Silva noted that around 2,500 avocado growers and other agricultural producers are being extorted daily. She added that nearly 60 families had been displaced due to fear of violent groups in northern Tolima. De La Espriella emphasized that the main challenge facing Tolima is insecurity. He stated that the department has the potential to thrive independently and does not require external aid, but it urgently needs safety and stability to enable its residents to work and produce effectively. The situation in Tolima reflects broader concerns across Colombia regarding rising violence and insecurity. In Antioquia, another key region, similar challenges persist despite economic growth. According to an analysis by Antioquia Cómo Vamos, while there have been improvements in poverty reduction and employment rates, the region faces severe issues related to public safety, healthcare, education, and demographics. Antioquia ranks second in economic performance nationwide, yet it struggles with a significant increase in armed conflict, which affects more than 86% of its municipalities. Between 2023 and 2025, armed clashes rose by 73%, contributing directly to 85% of homicides in the area and forcing thousands to flee annually. Local authorities are calling for increased national support to address these issues, particularly in combating illegal economies such as illicit mining and drug trafficking. Healthcare in Antioquia is also under strain, with access to medical services becoming a primary concern for many citizens. The region has fewer hospital beds per capita compared to national averages, and wait times for general medical appointments exceed the national average. These factors contribute to a growing perception of inadequate healthcare infrastructure. As De La Espriella prepares to assume the presidency, the focus on regional security and development remains critical. His administration will need to balance economic progress with addressing deep-rooted issues that threaten both public safety and quality of life across different regions of the country.
