Former President Benigno Aquino III has not confirmed his attendance to President Rodrigo Duterte's fourth State of the Nation Address (SONA) this July 22.
This was relayed to GMA News Online by the House of Representatives Task Force SONA 2019 - Committee on Invitations, Reception and Protocol.
The House has traditionally been sending out invitations to former Presidents and other government officials to attend the incumbent chief executive's SONA.
However, it is not the first time that Aquino would not be attending Duterte's SONA, as he also skipped the previous three.
Meanwhile, the Office of the Vice President has confirmed that Vice President Leni Robredo will attend Duterte's SONA this year.
Members of the two houses of Congress, as well as officials from the executive, judiciary and even local government units, are set to converge at the House of Representatives on Monday to hear the President's report to the nation. —KG, GMA News
