𝗥𝗶𝗱𝗼 𝗦𝗲𝘁𝘁𝗹𝗲𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁 | On May 7, two rido settlements were held by the Ministry of Public Order and Safety in Buldon Municipality, Maguindanao del Norte at the PAMM Compound in Brgy. Oring. Both families involved in the feud signed an agreement and swore an oath on the Holy Quran, promising not to engage in retaliation and violence towards each other. This ceremony effectively ended the conflict between the families.
One of the families involved in the rido expressed their gratitude to MPOS and its partners for resolving the feud. He said, “𝘔𝘢𝘴𝘢𝘺𝘢 𝘱𝘰 𝘬𝘢𝘮𝘪 𝘯𝘢 𝘴𝘢 𝘱𝘢𝘮𝘢𝘮𝘢𝘨𝘪𝘵𝘢𝘯 𝘱𝘰 𝘯𝘪𝘯𝘺𝘰 [𝘔𝘗𝘖𝘚 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘱𝘢𝘳𝘵𝘯𝘦𝘳𝘴] 𝘢𝘺 𝘯𝘢𝘭𝘶𝘵𝘢𝘴 𝘢𝘵 𝘯𝘢𝘵𝘪𝘨𝘪𝘭 𝘯𝘢 𝘳𝘪𝘯 𝘱𝘰 𝘪𝘵𝘰 [𝘳𝘪𝘥𝘰], 𝘯𝘢𝘨𝘴𝘪𝘴𝘪𝘴𝘪 𝘱𝘰 𝘵𝘢𝘭𝘢𝘨𝘢 𝘢𝘬𝘰 𝘢𝘵 𝘢𝘯𝘨 𝘢𝘮𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘱𝘢𝘮𝘪𝘭𝘺𝘢 𝘯𝘢 𝘯𝘢𝘯𝘨𝘺𝘢𝘳𝘪 𝘱𝘢 𝘢𝘯𝘨 𝘮𝘨𝘢 𝘣𝘢𝘨𝘢𝘺 𝘯𝘢 𝘪𝘵𝘰 𝘴𝘢 𝘢𝘮𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘱𝘢𝘮𝘪𝘭𝘺𝘢.”
