Senate Minority Leader Aquilino "Koko" Pimentel III and Senate electoral reforms committee chairperson Imee Marcos on Tuesday opposed proposals to postpone the first elections in the Bangsamoro Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao ."The BARMM electrons must push through," Pimentel said in a text message to reporters.Marcos, meanwhile, said it is time for the BARMM residents to elect the leaders that they want."Opposed talaga ako dyan.
Therefore, we need to know what their justification is for the extension and if it merits an extension," Zubiri, principal author and sponsor of the Bangsamoro Organic Law, said."I also know that an extension is not popular with the locally elected leaders and could cause a backlash and therefore we should study that proposal very carefully.
