MANILA, Philippines — The Office of Vice President Sara Duterte spent the controversial P125-million confidential funds in 2022 in just 11 days, the Commission on Audit confirmed yesterday.
Through its budget sponsor, House committee on appropriations senior vice president Stella Luz Quimbo, the COA corrected Gabriela party-list Rep. Arlene Brosas, who sought confirmation on the disposition of the P125 million in confidential fund. “In truth, I was also surprised when I heard the news that it was spent within 19 days so I asked COA and reviewed various reports. It was obligated not within 19 days but 11 days instead,” Quimbo, Marikina representative, said.
Quimbo replied in the affirmative, noting that the liquidation report was submitted by the OVP on Jan. 17, 2023.
