From ABS-CBN (May 8): MILF registers United Bangsamoro Justice Party
Moro Islamic Liberation Front (MILF) chief peace negotiator Mohagher Iqbal on Friday confirmed that they have registered their political party with the Commission on Elections (Comelec).
Iqbal told ABS-CBN News that their lawyers recently went to Manila to file a petition for registration of the MILF's political party called United Bangsamoro Justice Party (UBJP).
"Mga 2-3 days ago. Confirmed yun, 100%, kasi magkasama mga abugado pumunta kami ng Maynila dun sa Comelec at nag-register," he said.
He said this is part of the MILF's transition from a revolutionary group to a political party once the Bangsamoro is be realized.
But there are still lots of work to be done, said Iqbal, because the Comelec still has to check and validate the documents submitted by the UBJP.
The UBJP was created and formed in December 2014.
