Cavite Representative Kiko Barzaga has confirmed that the anti-Marcos protest will take place on October 12, 2025, at the Forbes Park Buendia Gate, beginning at 10:00 PM.
The announcement was made through Barzaga’s Facebook page, where he released a video message inviting the public to join the protest. In his statement, the lawmaker urged Filipinos to “fight back against corruption,” describing the protest as a continuation of their earlier call for accountability.
Barzaga said the upcoming demonstration follows the September protest, which, according to him, failed to make an impact on the administration. “Unfortunately, the mass protest in September did not affect the Marcos administration because they are far too detached to understand the severity of their crimes,” he said.
He added that the protest aims to bring the people’s frustrations directly to those responsible for corruption. “We will deliver the people’s anger right at their doorstep. We will bring the frustrations of those who lost their homes to corruption to the homes of those who are corrupt,” Barzaga said.
The congressman also reminded participants to take precautions during the event by bringing protective gear and observing safety protocols. “We had to shield yourself from the weather, a mask to prevent the spread of diseases, and shades or glasses to protect your eyes from the dirt,” he advised.
Barzaga concluded his message by urging attendees to stay safe during the protest. “Stay safe, and God bless you all,” he said.
The October 12 protest follows Barzaga’s recent remarks calling for the resignation of President Bongbong Marcos over alleged corruption and misuse of public funds. Authorities have not yet released any statement regarding preparations or security measures for the planned demonstration.
