Mabini, officially the Municipality of Mabini (Cebuano : Munisipyo sa Mabini; Tagalog : Bayan ng Mabini), is a 4th class municipality in the province of Bohol, Philippines. According to the 2020 census, it has a population of 28,701 people. ^[4]

Mabini celebrates its feast on May 4, to honor the town patron Santa Monica. ^[6]

History

Established on October 31, 1903 ^[7] titled Philippine Commission Act No. 968, the town of Mabini was initially composed of the territory of Batuanan (now Alicia and Mabini), Barrio Libas from Candijay, and Barrio Cabulao from Ubay (now San Roque, Mabini). The efforts of establishing these barangays into a town came from Capitan Canuto Bernales, General Pedro Samson and Atty. Gabino Sepulveda when the Philippines Governor General issued a directive to organize large barangays into towns.

Bernales, Samson and Sepulveda were friends and comrades-in-arms during the Filipino-Spanish and Filipino-American revolutions. The idea of naming the town as Mabini came from Samson and Sepulveda, in honor of the hero, Apolinario Mabini, the Sublime Paralytic and Brain of the Revolution. Then provincial Governor Aniceto Clarin handed over the approved resolution to Capitan Bernales who had to walk all the way to Tagbilaran to receive it. The approved resolution he receive formally recognized the formation of the town of Mabini. Bernales became the first town president of Mabini. ^[8]

On March 9, 2005, Mabini became the site of the Philippines' deadliest accidental mass poisoning, when 28 students died and more than 100 others were hospitalized after eating cassava-based snacks believed to have been tainted with pesticide in Barangay San Jose. ^[9]
