A SPOKESPERSON of Vice President Jejomar Binay Tuesday slammed as “totally skewed” the Inquirer report on Commission on Audit (COA) findings outlining alleged irregularities in the construction of the overpriced Makati City Hall Building II.
“The news report is totally skewed and spiteful in the light of a COA press information office statement that there is no COA report yet,” Rico Quicho said.
He said he found it strange that the report “did not say the details when it was released, what period was covered or if it included the management comments on the said findings.”
“The report is one-sided, reeks with bad faith and with the sole purpose of discrediting again the Vice President,” Quicho said.
The Binay camp has not yet seen an official copy of the COA report, he added.

But the “malicious” resurrection of the issue shows that the orchestrated and well-funded attack against the Vice President has now been revived,” Quicho said.
