FAKE NEWS ang larawan sa Facebook post ng “Katribu News Online” na nagsasabing magkakaroon ng Barangay at Sangguniang Kabataan Elections (BSKE) sa Disyembre 14, 2026.

Tandaan:

✅ Nilagdaan na ni Pangulong Ferdinand R. Marcos, Jr. ang Republic Act No. 12326, na nagtakda ng limang (5) taong termino para sa mga opisyal ng Barangay at Sangguniang Kabataan.

✅ Alinsunod sa batas, ang susunod na Barangay at Sangguniang Kabataan Elections (BSKE) ay nakatakdang idaos sa Nobyembre 13, 2028.

✅ Dahil dito, hindi na itutuloy ang BSKE na dating nakatakda sa Nobyembre 2, 2026.

✅ Sa kasalukuyan, nananatiling epektibo ang RA No. 12326 dahil wala pang inilalabas na Temporary Restraining Order (TRO) ang Korte Suprema na pansamantalang magpapahinto sa pagpapatupad nito.

PAALALA:
Huwag magpapalinlang sa mga maling impormasyon na maaaring magdulot ng kalituhan sa publiko tungkol sa mga halalan. Siguraduhing ang mga balita at anunsyo ay mula lamang sa mga opisyal na website at social media accounts ng COMELEC.
