Nur Misuari has fired another member of his Cabinet in what some sectors described as a "wanton and arbitrary dismissal" of his subordinates for their recognition of the "Council of 15" as the new central leadership of the Moro National Liberation Front (MNLF).


Various sectors in Maguindanao, Lanao del Sur, Sulu and Tawi-Tawi have called on President Arroyo to intervene in the continuing dismissal of ARMM officials, worried about a possible backlash of Misuari’s move on governance.
