Vice President Sara Duterte (Photo from her Facebook page) MANILA, Phililppines — Smarting from criticism over its huge request for secret funds, the Office of the Vice President (OVP) said on Wednesday it has not received any notice from the Commission on Audit (COA) flagging its use of P125 million in confidential expenses in 2022 . Vice President Sara Duterte's office also clarified that it spent the amount in 19 days and not 11 days, contrary to what Marikina Rep. Stella Quimbo said during the House plenary deliberations on the COA's budget on Monday.
