Manukan, officially the Municipality of Manukan (Cebuano: Lungsod sa Manukan; Subanen: Benwa Manukan; Chavacano: Municipalidad de Manukan; Tagalog: Bayan ng Manukan), is a 3rd class municipality in the province of Zamboanga del Norte, Philippines. According to the 2020 census, it has a population of 36,887 people.
It is located west of Dipolog, the provincial capital, and north-east of Zamboanga City, the regional capital.
During the Pre-Spanish era this town was inhabited by the Subanons. During the Spanish colonization, Manukan was a barrio part of Dapitan. In the creation of the municipality of Katipunan, this barrio became a barangay Manukan. Chickens were plenty and breeds that supply the northern part of Mindanao come from this town. "Manukan" word means poultry farm.On June 16, 1951, thru the effort of former Congressman (and later Senator) Roseller T. Lim with the help of Governor Serapio J. Datoc of the former Province of Zamboanga, President Elpidio Quirino signed into law Republic Act No. 655 creating the municipality of Manukan.[1] In 1952, the barrios of Manukan, Lipras, Dipane, Linay, Mate, Sirongan, Libuton, Disakan, Siparok, Ponot, and Manawan of Katipunan were formed into the town of Manukan.[2]
Sitio Libuton became a barangay in 1954.[3]
Lipras was renamed San Antonio in 1957.[4]
In 1979, by virtue of Batas Pambansa Blg. 15, seven barangays in the southwestern part of the municipality were separated to create the municipality of Ponot (now Jose Dalman).[5]
Manukan is politically subdivided into 22 barangays. Each barangay consists of puroks while some have sitios.
The central Poblacion is where the municipal seat is located. Nine of the barangays are along the national highway and the rest of them are mountain barangays, being three or more kilometers away from the national highway that runs mostly along the coast of the municipality.
Manukan is being served by the Medicare Community Hospital of Manukan, often known as Trifon H. Saile Memorial Hospital, a community hospital located in Barangay Poblacion.
