Earlier, Duterte said the inclusion of Macapaar, better known as Commander Bravo, in the BTA will help end the revolution in Mindanao.

Ebrahim vowed that good governance in the BARMM will be delivered in the BTA. He also promised to end corruption and sustain the gains of the Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao.
