The Vice President also said her office will provide assistance to affected families.
"Gagawin ito sa pamamagitan ng OVP–Cebu, Bohol, at Siquijor Satellite Office, OVP–Eastern Visayas Satellite Office, at OVP–Panay and Negros Islands Satellite Office," she said.
"Dasal ng OVP na mabigyan kayo ng lakas ng loob, at tibay ng pananampalataya, at pag-asa sa pagharap ng hamon na ito," Duterte added.
