History
File:Tabo in Libjo - panoramio.jpg
The town became a part of the province of Dinagat Islands in December 2006, when the province was created from Surigao del Norte by Republic Act No. 9355. However, in February 2010, the Supreme Court ruled that the law was unconstitutional, as the necessary requirements for provincial land area and population were not met. The town reverted to Surigao del Norte.{{cite news|url=http://newsinfo.inquirer.net/breakingnews/regions/view/20100211-252612/Dinagat-Islands-province-back-to-being-a-town |title=Dinagat Islands province back to being a town |author=Tetch Torres |date=2010-02-11 |newspaper=Philippine Daily Inquirer|access-date=10 February 2010 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20100212230209/http://newsinfo.inquirer.net/breakingnews/regions/view/20100211-252612/Dinagat-Islands-province-back-to-being-a-town |archive-date=12 February 2010 }} On October 24, 2012, however, the Supreme Court reversed its ruling from the previous year, and upheld the constitutionality of RA 9355 and the creation of Dinagat Islands as a province.{{cite web|url=http://president.gov.ph/gov_at_work/ira-shares-for-lgus-jump-by-37-5-in-2013/ |title=IRA Shares for LGUs Jump by 37.5% in 2013 |date=January 9, 2013 |publisher=Office of the President of the Philippines |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20140903080930/http://president.gov.ph/gov_at_work/ira-shares-for-lgus-jump-by-37-5-in-2013/ |archive-date=September 3, 2014 }}
