Political career
Summarize
Perspective
In regional level
Adiong was an ARMM assemblyman since 2001.[citation needed]
Adiong and his running mate Zaldy Ampatuan, both ran under Lakas–CMD, were elected vice-governor and governor, respectively, of ARMM in 2005[6][7] and in 2008.[8][9]
On December 10, 2009, pursuant to the rule on succession stated in Republic Act (RA) No. 9054, Adiong, also the regional local government secretary, was sworn in by interior secretary Ronaldo Puno to assume the regional governorship vacated by Ampatuan who was taken into military custody for his alleged involvement in the Maguindanao massacre.[10][11][12]
He assumed the said post until his successor was appointed in December 2011 by virtue of RA No. 10153.[13][14]
In Congress
Adiong initially filed his candidacy for ARMM vice governor for the 2011 regional elections, originally scheduled on August 8 but later synchronized with the 2013 national elections through RA No. 10153.[9][15][16] However, he later opted to run for representative of the first legislative district of Lanao del Sur under the Liberal Party (LP).[17]
Adiong was then elected for three consecutive terms: in 2013 (ran under LP),[18][19] in 2016 (ran under the same party),[2][20] and in 2019 (under Nacionalista Party or NP).[21][22]
On May 11, 2017, Adiong, along with five other LP congressmen, transferred to PDP–Laban.[23] In the 2019 elections, he ran under NP.[24]
Adiong was elected chairman of the House Committee on Muslim Affairs of the 18th Congress.[25]
As municipal mayor
In 2022, Adiong ran under the NP and was elected mayor in his hometown in Ditsaan-Ramain, Lanao del Sur.[4][26]
