PARANG, Maguindanao – The local government here, under the leadership of Mayor Cahar P. Ibay, put an end to the years of conflict between the Miracor and Oranto families.
The 13-year “rido” or clan war was settled on Tuesday, June 1, with the intercession of other local leaders including Member of Parliament Datu Tucao O. Mastur, Sultan Kudarat Governor Datu Suharto “Teng” Mangudadadatu, and Maguindanao Governor Bai Mariam S. Mangudadatu
In a message, Mayor Ibay expressed his gratitude to the help of local officials and to the initiative of the concerned families who have finally decided to end the family feuds.
“I am grateful that finally the family feud between Miracor and Oranto families have ended. It can be recalled that warring families are close friends before in the town of Barira. It is such a misfortune to see them fight against each other given their good history of friendship,” he said.
Though, the two families are not residents of Parang but of Barira, one of their family members sought help from Mayor Ibay. Immediately, he requested the help of other local officials to formalize the resolution of the yearslong conflict
To give the former-warring families an
opportunity to live in peace, Governor Sangki-Mangudadatu gave them P300,000
blood money and P200,000 livelihood assistance each, which were personally
received by Quirino Oranto, Al-Hadj, and Usop Aron Maricor. (Anne B. Acosta)
