Ninoy Day a call to protect freedom, deepen unity – Marcos

President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. commemorated Ninoy Aquino Day by urging Filipinos to draw inspiration from the late Senator Benigno 'Ninoy' Aquino Jr. in protecting the nation's freedom and advancing its development. The observance marks the fifth time under the Marcos administration that the non-working holiday has been held to honor Aquino, a prominent opposition figure who was assassinated in 1983. The day serves as a reminder of Aquino's legacy as a symbol of resistance against authoritarianism and his contributions to the democratic values of the Philippines.
