COA uncovers Mabilog’s effort to hide City Hall building anomaly

Jed Patrick E. Mabilog has time and again put up the excuse that the Commission on Audit has not issued a notice of disallowance on the anomalous P224 million supplemental works contract for the completion of the City Hall project in Iloilo City.

In its Annual Audit Report for the year ending December 31, 2011, the Commission on Audit revealed that its audit evaluation of the contract could not proceed because Mabilog has repeatedly — REPEATEDLY — refused to submit pertinent documents relative to the contract. In short, this has left COA blind on the entire transaction. But even then, the COA already saw that the transaction was fraught with irregularities.
