DAVAO CITY – “This is a great day, a great day for the Bangsamoro homeland,” the 83-year-old Nur Misuari, chair of the Moro National Liberation Front said of his meeting with Bangsamoro Chief Minister Ahod “Al Haj Murad” Ebrahim, chair of the Moro Islamic Liberation Front whom he warmly welcomed in his residence here shortly after 2 p.m. on Sunday, marking the first time in over two decades that leaders of both fronts sat down to talk with each other.
“This is a symbol of unity,” Ebrahim described their meeting, to which Misuari added, “and solidarity.” Bangsamoro Senior Minister Abdulraof Macacua, shakes the hand of Moro National Liberation Front chair Nur Misuari as he hands over a souvenir photo of his visit, along with Bangsamoro Chief Minister and Moro Islamic Liberation Front chair Ahod “Al Haj Murad Ebrahim” on Sunday, 11 September 2022 in Misuari’s residence in Davao City.

“Was he not resistant given that the BTA is MILF-led,” MindaNews asked Member of Parliament Nurredha, Misuari’s eldest daughter with third wife Tarhata Ebrahim, on August 19. Nurredha replied: “No no. Sabi pa nga niya , he wants to visit Murad. Really, it’s really something. Ama is really open now.”
Hashim’s MILF, on the other hand, started negotiating peace with the government in July 1997 under the Ramos administration but under the Estrada administration, only a general intent was signed in August 1998. MP Abdulkarim Misuari, Misuari’s eldest son with first wife Desdemona Tan, pointed his finger up to indicate it was Allah’s will that the brothers in the Bangsamoro struggle are now back together. “Move forward lahat.”
