Apolinario Mabini
July 23, 1864 - May 13, 1903

He is regarded as the
"utak ng himagsikan" or
"brain of the revolution".
 Revolutionary leader, educator,
lawyer, and statesman who served
first as a legal and constitutional
adviser to the Revolutionary
Government, and then as the first
Prime Minister of the Philippines
upon the establishment of the First
Philippine Republic.
 Two of his works, El Verdadero Decalogo (The
True Decalogue, June 24, 1898), and Programa
Constitucional dela Republica Filipina (The
Constitutional Program of the Philippine Republic,
1898) became instrumental in the drafting of
what would eventually be known as the Malolos
Constitution.
 Mabini performed all his revolutionary and
governmental activities despite having lost the use of
both his legs to polio,shortly before the Philippine
Revolution of 1896.
Mabini's role in Philippine history saw him confronting
first Spanish colonial rule in the opening days of the
Philippine Revolution, and then American colonial rule
in the days of the Philippine–American War. The latter
saw Mabini captured and exiled to Guam by American
colonial authorities, allowed to return only two months
before his eventual death in May 1903.
