Answer and explanation
Correct answer: B. 1968
Dinagyang is a festival in Iloilo that grew from the devotion to the Santo Niño. In 1968 a replica of the original Santo Niño de Cebu image was brought to Iloilo by Fr. Sulpicio Enderez, and it was welcomed at Mandurriao Airport. The devotion had been introduced in November 1967, so the year 1965 comes before it began.
