OPINION - The drama continues in Kauswagan. And the big question is, how did this come to be? Looks like the motives are questionable as far as the Sangguniang Panlalawigan is concerned. The mayor and Sangguniang Bayan were suspended for suspending barangay officials who disadvantaged people in their own barangay.

By the way, the SP also suspended mayors and vice mayors in different municipalities. Is this purging? Is someone unleashing some dragon power? And for what reason? This might be a fireworks display of might and an attempt to show who’s more powerful and in control. A ravishing political power play. In the meantime, this province is poor.

Is this what the people need? This political exercise is a complete deterrence to people’s aspirations for progress. This does not make Filipinos live a more comfortable life.

Is Politics at Play?

Political Power Struggles in Kauswagan Undermine Governance and Public Welfare

The recent decision by the Sangguniang Panlalawigan (SP) of Lanao del Norte to suspend Kauswagan Mayor Rommel Arnado, the vice mayor, and members of the municipal council has raised serious questions about fairness, due process, and the motivations behind this action.

While the SP claims the suspension is based on allegations of abuse of authority, the timing and circumstances surrounding this decision point to deeper political dynamics that threaten the integrity of governance in Lanao del Norte.

Key points to consider

-Weaponization of Accountability
Accountability is a cornerstone of good governance, but in this case, it appears to have been weaponized as a tool for political retaliation. The municipal leadership of Kauswagan acted on legitimate complaints about mismanagement by a barangay captain, a decision rooted in their responsibility to protect the interests of their constituents. Yet, their actions have been labeled as abusive without a thorough investigation into the evidence supporting their decisions.

-Questionable Timing
The decision to suspend the entire leadership of Kauswagan comes at a critical time, with elections fast approaching. This raises concerns about whether the move serves the interests of the people or those of powerful political groups seeking to consolidate influence over the municipality.

-Impact on Public Welfare
The suspension of both the executive and legislative branches creates a governance vacuum that directly impacts the people of Kauswagan. Essential services and ongoing projects may suffer, leaving the municipality in a state of uncertainty. This highlights how political rivalries can often come at the expense of public welfare.

-Transparency and Fairness are Non-Negotiable
Decisions of this magnitude must be guided by transparency and impartiality. The SP must ensure that its actions are based on a thorough and unbiased review of the facts, not influenced by political affiliations or pressures. The people of Kauswagan deserve clarity and justice, not rushed decisions that leave more questions than answers.

-Civic Vigilance is Vital
The people of Lanao del Norte must remain vigilant and engaged. This case underscores the need for citizens to hold all leaders accountable—whether local or provincial—to ensure that governance serves the public interest, not personal or political agendas.

Mayor Rommel Arnado has asserted that this suspension is politically motivated, an allegation that warrants serious scrutiny. As this situation unfolds, it is critical that all sides are heard, and that the public remains informed. The goal must always be to uphold democracy, fairness, and the well-being of the people above all else.

Let us not allow political ambition to overshadow the progress and stability of our communities.

Mayor Arnados Leadership is unmatched even if we combine the substance inside between the ears of Boyboy Flores, Evangeline Jubas and Toto Densing.
