KINONDENA ng mga kongresista ang pambobomba sa Cathedral sa Jolo, Sulu na ikinasawi ng 19 katao at ikinasugat ng 79 na iba pa.
Sinabi ni Muntinlupa Rep. Ruffy Biazon na ang pambobomba ay isang insulto sa Sulu at Mindanao na humihingi ng kapayapaan kaya bumoto pabor sa Bangsamoro Organic Law.
“It is also a direct challenge to the efforts that the government is pushing for to achieve peace in Southern Philippines,” ani Biazon. “The manner and timing of the bombing suggests that it was meant to sow terror in order to affect the course of the peace efforts. Targeting a place of worship on a day of worship not only ensures that there will be a big number of casualties but psychological, social and even religious impact as well.”
Ayon kay Rep. Amihilda Sangcopan na nakababahala ang pangyayaring ito lalo at katatapos pa lamang ng plebisito para sa BOL at ipinatutupad pa ang martial law sa Mindanao.
“We send our fervent prayers for the families of the victims. May they find the strength they need during this unfortunate time. We urge the authorities to give these people and their families the justice they truly deserve,” ani Sangcopan. “Our people deserve to be fully informed, not misinformed just to serve the whims of some.”
Alas-8 ng umaga ng maganap ang pagsabog sa harap ng Mt. Carmel Cathedral.
