After much talks, Barangay Catalunan councilor Jhun Duray officially filed his certificate of candidacy as barangay captain of his barangay on Friday at the Comelec office in Magsaysay Park, Davao City on September 1
Accompanied by his family, supporters, and candidates of his team, Duray filed his COC to the delight of those people who accompanied him at Comelec.
The office of first district congressman Pulong Duterte was also in Comelec to support the barangay captain bid of Duray, a man well-loved in his barangay due to his service-oriented heart.
Duray, a two-term Barangay councilor, had no intention of running as barangay captain at first since he still had one term left as a barangay legislator.
However, many people of Barangay Catalunan Pequeno urged him to and even told him 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 focused 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.
