FIVE barangays in the Municipality of Bayang in Lanao del Sur held the Barangay and Sangguniang Kabataan Elections one day late due to delays in the delivery of poll paraphernalia. In an “urgent memorandum,” Lanao del Sur Election Supervisor Udtog Tago said the elections failed to push through on October 30 in Barangays Central Lalapung, Cadayonan, Lumbac Cadayonan, Bialaan, and Linao.
Tago said the situation forced the local Commission on Elections office to reset the BSKE to Tuesday, October 31.'In view of the high tensions among aspirants and supporters as manifested by the non-conduct of election, we in the PJSCC, after thorough assessment and evaluation, decided to apply the contingency provided in the General Instructions,' he said.
