“THIS is not funny anymore.”

A LAWMAKER said this after more unusual names were discovered in the alleged recipients of the Office of the Vice President (OVP) and the Department of Education’s (DepEd) confidential funds (CFs).

Multiple “Fionas,” a “Magellan,” and an individual with the surname “Ewan” — a Filipino slang for “I don’t know” were added to the list, said House Deputy Majority Leader and La Union Rep. Paolo Ortega V in an Inquirer report.

Ortega said Honeylet Camille Sy, Feonna Biong, Feonna Villegas, and Joel Linangan were listed as alleged beneficiaries of the OVP’s P500-million CF, while Fiona Ranitez, Erwin Q. Ewan, Ellen Magellan, Gary Tanada purportedly received portions of the DepEd’s P112.5-million CF.

These CF recipients with peculiar names also have no official birth, marriage, and death records from the Philippine Statistics Authority (PSA), but these names were on the list submitted by the OVP and DepEd to the Commission on Audit (COA).

“This is not funny anymore; they repeatedly use fake names they seem to get from movies and showbiz,” Ortega said in the report.

Ortega said the list could serve as strong evidence if Duterte fails to prove that the recipients are real people.

Duterte has been impeached by the House of Representatives with the trial expected to start in July.
