The Royal House of Sulu clarifies Baron Geisler is not a Datu of Sulu

The Royal House of Sulu took to Facebook to clarify that actor Baron Geisler is not a Datu of Sulu.

“Please be informed that the recent issuance of a title to Philippine actor Mr. Baron Geisler, was done by false pretenders who are not even recognized by the Philippine government,” it said in the caption that accompanied a copy of the statement.

“The Sultanate of Sulu and North Borneo urges the public not to be mislead [sic]. Mr. Geisler is NOT a Datu of Sulu,” he added.

In the statement, the Royal Sultanate of Sulu said, "The 'Royal Imperial Lupah Sug Islamic United Kingdom of Sulu and North Borneo' lead by Mohammad Mamay Abdurajak and Helen Fatima Abdurajak, who are both commoners with no royal blood, is not even recognized by the Philippine government as one of the claimants to the Sultanate of Sulu."

On Wednesday, Baron proudly shared on Instagram that he was chosen as ambassador of peace and prosperity by the Sultanate of Sulu and North Borneo. — LA, GMA News
