CAMP DARAPANAN (29 April 2026 / 12 Dhul-Qi’dah 1447 AH) — Chairman of the Moro Islamic Liberation Front Central Committee (MILF-CC) and President of the United Bangsamoro Justice Party (UBJP), Al Haj Murad Ebrahim, led the 2026 UBJP Party Convention at the MILF-CC Gymnasium, marking a decisive step toward strengthening discipline, unity, and strategic direction within the movement.
Attended by party nominees and stakeholders from various sectors, the convention reflected the enduring resolve of the Bangsamoro people as thousands gathered to reaffirm that the struggle continues, evolving with the demands of the time, yet never retreating from its fundamental principles and aspirations.
In his address, Chairman Murad reaffirmed the core foundations of the Bangsamoro struggle: the defense of Bangsamoro identity, the protection of hard-won political gains, and the continued pursuit of genuine self-determination as he emphasized that while significant progress has been achieved in governance, external intervention and overreach from the national government continues to persist under the existing transition arrangement.
The Chairman underscored that the path forward requires decisive and responsible political action, he stressed that the upcoming elections are not merely a procedural exercise, but a defining moment to safeguard the Bangsamoro’s autonomy, assert the democratic will of its people, and prevent undue overreach that may undermine the gains of the peace process.
Above all, Chairman Murad emphasized that the true strength of the movement lies in the people themselves where he called on the Bangsamoro to remain united, vigilant, and steadfast in upholding the principles of the struggle, ensuring that every gain secured through sacrifice, perseverance, and collective determination is protected for future generations.
