Local officials say the President needs to appoint Maguindanao del Norte's provincial board members without whom the provincial government cannot function.
COTABATO CITY, Philippines – Maguindanao del Norte Governor Abduraof Macacua has called on President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. to appoint eight members of the new province’s legislature so the provincial government could start to function.
BARMM Interior Minister Naguib Sinarimbo said only the President can appoint members of the provincial board upon the recommendation of the Maguindanao del Norte governor and vice governor, and the province’s representative to the Lower House. Only then can the national government transfer the National Tax Allocation share of Maguindanao del Norte to the provincial government, he said.
Marcos appointed Sinsuat as officer-in-charge of the Office of the Vice Governor of Maguindanao del Norte instead.
