| Submission declined on 7 October 2024 by Jamiebuba (talk). This submission's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article—that is, they do not show significant coverage (not just passing mentions) about the subject in published, reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject (see the guidelines on the notability of people). Before any resubmission, additional references meeting these criteria should be added (see technical help and learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue). If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia. This submission appears to read more like an advertisement than an entry in an encyclopedia. Encyclopedia articles need to be written from a neutral point of view, and should refer to a range of independent, reliable, published sources, not just to materials produced by the creator of the subject being discussed. This is important so that the article can meet Wikipedia's verifiability policy and the notability of the subject can be established. If you still feel that this subject is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia, please rewrite your submission to comply with these policies.

Comment: To add to comment by the previous reviewer, it reads like advertisement and is certainly not notable per WP:NPOL. Jamiebuba (talk) 06:51, 7 October 2024 (UTC)

Datu Yacob Lumenda Ampatuan is a public servant in the Philippines. His parents, Datu Ishak Ampatuan and Bai Puti Lumenda, were former municipal and provincial officials in Maguindanao. His brother, Zamzamin Lumenda Ampatuan is the position of Undersecretary for Special Concerns and for the Bangsamoro Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao at the Department of Agriculture. Datu Yacob is descended from Shariff Ampatuan and the grandson of Saiduna Mustafa.
The public perception of the Ampatuan clan, to which he belongs, was marred by the Maguindanao massacre. Authorities identified Andal Ampatuan Jr., known as "Datu Unsay," as the primary suspect. During the brief imposition of Martial Law in Maguindanao following the massacre, Datu Unsay's father, Datu Andal Ampatuan, along with his brothers, was taken into custody.[1]
To alleviate the rising tensions, his brother Datu Zamzamin persuaded Datu Unsay to comply with legal proceedings and offered guidance to government officials on managing the aftermath of the massacre, aiming to mitigate its effects on the daily lives of the residents in Maguindanao.[2]
Political Career
[edit]Datu Yacob served as the mayor of Rajah Buayan Municipality from 2004 to 2013. In the 2019 National Election, he ran for the position of Municipal Vice Mayor with his brother Zamzamin L. Ampatuan as the Municipal Mayor. However, Mayor Zamzamin was appointed as the Undersecretary of the Department of Agriculture by President Rodrigo Duterte in 2019,[3] which led to Datu Yacob becoming the Municipal Mayor of Rajah Buayan from 2019 to 2022 through the law of succession.
In the 2022 National Election, Datu Yacob was elected Municipal Mayor of Rajah Buayanbut the opposing candidate filed a protest against him, alleging cheating. It was claimed that the protestant had bribed and threatened the judge to favor their case. n November 2022, the court ruled in favor of the protestant, declaring them the winner with 5,317 votes, while Datu Yacob received 3,797 votes. The official vote count by the Commission on Elections (COMELEC) recorded 5,940 votes for Datu Yacob L. Ampatuan, the candidate who was initially declared the winner.[4][5][6]
He helped develop Rajah Buayan alongside his brother Datu Zamzamin Ampatuan who established essential infrastructure, including roads, street lights, and buildings. This helped the repopulation of the town bringing back its people and revitalizing the community.
Datu Yacob is a member of The Fraternal Order of Eagles - Philippine Eagles Incorporated.[7]
