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

History

Established on July 23, 1904,[7] through a resolution approved by then Governor General of the Philippines, the town of Mabini was initially composed of the three large barangays of Libas or Ubayon from Candijay, Batuanan (now Alicia), and Cabulao from Ubay. The efforts of establishing these barangays into a town came from Capitan Canuto Bernales, General Pedro Samsom and Atty. Gabino Sepulveda when the Philippines Governor General issued a directive to organize large barangays into towns.

Capitan Canuto Bernales, General Pedro Samsom and Atty. Gabino 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 General Pedro Samson and Atty. 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 Canuto Bernales who had to walk all the way to Tagbilaran City to receive it. The approved resolution he receive formally recognized the formation of the town of Mabini. Capitan Canuto 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]
