The turnover ceremony formed part of the Ministry’s celebration of the National Shelter Month 2026, anchored on the theme “Tahanan. Pamayanan. Kinabukasan”. The occasion underscored that building sustainable communities goes beyond providing homes; it also means establishing spaces where residents can gather, connect, and collectively shape a better future.

Funded from the Supplemental Fund (SF) 2024 of the Office of MP Sema, the project was implemented by the MHSD in partnership with Engsu Construction Supplies.

Bangsamoro Director General Esmael W. Ebrahim said the Bangsamoro Government continues its commitment to delivering services and development initiatives, particularly for communities and individuals affected by years of conflict and struggle.

“Today, we are witnessing one of the fruits of the struggle of our Mujahideen. We at the Ministry of Human Settlements and Development, extend our heartfelt congratulations to the community and the beneficiaries of this covered court,” he expressed.

Meanwhile, as the representative of MP Sema, Chief of Staff Abderson A. Antao, Al-Hadj said the project was actually conceptualized considering the needs and welfare of the beneficiaries.

He further underscored the commitment of MP Sema’s office to serving the Bangsamoro people, a principle that has guided its initiatives since the beginning of his public service.
