FACT CHECK: OVP did not get a ‘perfect score’ for budget use from DBM 07.07.2026

A claim made by former broadcaster Jay Sonza on Facebook falsely asserts that the Office of the Vice President (OVP) is the only government agency to achieve a "perfect score" in budget utilization. This claim, which suggests superior fiscal management by Vice President Sara Duterte, has been debunked by official data. According to the Department of Budget and Management (DBM) 2024 Agency Performance Review, the OVP received a score of 4.50 out of 5.00, resulting in a "Very Satisfactory" rating. The DBM noted that procurement issues and late billing submissions impacted the OVP's performance. Furthermore, the OVP was not the only agency to achieve a perfect score; fourteen out of 304 agencies reached that milestone. These false claims often circulate alongside disinformation regarding the impeachment efforts against the Vice President.
