I-de-defund na ‘yan!: #ZeroBudgetPCOO Trends on Twitter


Wazzup Pilipinas!

#ZeroBudgetPCOO hit the number two spot on Twitter trends with netizens calling to defund the Presidential Communications Operations Office after another mishap. 

The reaction came after Assistant Secretary Mocha Uson posted a live video of a game show which aimed to raise awareness on federalism. Asec. Uson posted on her Facebook page an episode of “Good News Game Show” with Drew Olivar, a fellow blogger, who danced at the start of the show to the chant of “Ipepe, ipepe, idede, idede, ipederalismo!” 

“#ZeroBudgetPCOO becoming the top trending topics in Twitter last night only proves the fact that the PCOO has already lost its credibility in the eyes of the public.” Akbayan Youth leader Nathan Austria said.


Akbayan Youth filed a petition to remove Asec. Uson from her post last April 2, 2018 at the Office of the Ombudsman. The group filed their position paper last June after the Ombudsman found “sufficient cause for further proceedings.”


“Ang kakapal ng mukha! Nanghihingi pa ng mas mataas na budget na 1.41 billion samantalang yung ibang ahensya na may pakinabang ay pababa ng pababa” Austria added.




“People are sick and tired of their continuous errors and mishaps so it’s time to make them accountable at the PCOO budget hearing that will happen on August 16, 2018 in Congress” Austria ended
