If luck permits and Jhun Duray is elected as the next barangay captain of Catalunan Pequeno, it would be a huge blessing for the people of the said barangay.
This scenario developed since Duray has the full support of first district congressman Pulong Duterte in this year's Barangay and Sangguniang Kabataan elections slated on October 30.
When Duray filed his certificate of candidacy as barangay captain of Catalunan Pequeno last September 1 at the Comelec office in Magsaysay Park, Davao City, some of the staff of Duterte were present to support him.
The son of Duterte, Omar, who is running as barangay captain of Buhangin, was also there to raise the hand of Duray.
Duray, a two-term Barangay councilor, had no intention of running as barangay captain since he still had one term left as a barangay legislator.
However, many people of Barangay Catalunan Pequeno personally urged him to and even told him that they would not support him if he just ran as a barangay councilor.
Aside from the strong clamor from the people, Duray also decided to run due to the "heavenly sign" he got from the late Barangay Catalunan Pequeno captain Albert Baguilod.
While at the grave of Baguilod, he asked for a sign from his idol if he would pursue his plan to run as barangay captain.
Baguilod answered his query by sending a mini tornado that destroyed a mini tent in the area.
The odds of running against an incumbent barangay captain might be challenging, but Duray is focussed on his aim to serve the people of Barangay Catalunan Pequeno in a higher capacity as barangay chairman.
Duray is confident the people and Baguilod from above will support him all the way in this year's Barangay and Sangguniang Kabataan elections.
