ZAMBOANGA CITY: The sultans of Sulu are protesting a proposed extension of the interim Bangsamoro government for another three years and called on Muslims in the country and on President Rodrigo Duterte and Congress to disallow all attempts and maneuvers to extend the tenure of those trying to hold on power.

Influential Sultans Muizuddin Bahjin and Vennizar Julkarnain said aspiring members of the Bangsamoro parliament should be compelled to submit themselves before the true will of the people to legitimize their mandate through the electoral process as set and scheduled by the Constitution.
