Vice President Sara Duterte stated she would not attend further House hearings on alleged fund misuse by the Office of the Vice President (OVP) and DepEd.

The controversy also includes allegations of drug money trails linked to the Duterte family, which Duterte denies knowing about. The VP asserts the inquiries are unnecessary.
