How did corazon Aquino come into office?

Corazon Aquino came into office following the 1986 People Power Revolution in the Philippines, which was a non-violent uprising against the regime of President Ferdinand Marcos. After the controversial snap elections in February 1986, which were widely seen as fraudulent, Aquino, the opposition leader and widow of assassinated senator Benigno Aquino Jr., garnered mass support. The military eventually withdrew support from Marcos, leading to his exile and Aquino's assumption of the presidency. She became the first female president of the Philippines and was instrumental in restoring democracy in the country.
