The Supreme Court’s Second Division has ordered the Bureau of Local Government Finance, an agency under the DOF, to act with speed on the request of the Maguindanao del Norte government for the appointment of its provincial treasurer.

The BLGF had recognized Mangudadatu’s assumption and had recommended the designation of a provincial treasurer for the new province of Maguindanao del Sur.

“Sinsuat, as duly elected vice governor of the Province of Maguindanao, and Mastura, as next ranking member of the Sangguniang Panlalawigan of the Province of Maguindanao, validly assumed office as governor and vice governor, respectively, of the Province of Maguindanao del Norte, but only in acting capacities until elections for the permanent officials to the said positions shall have been held,” the high court ruled.

The Ministry of the Interior and Local Government of the Bangsamoro Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao had argued that if the plebiscite was held prior to the 2022 elections, the assumption of office of both Mangudadatu and Sinsuat would have been compliant with the law’s transitory provisions.
