Legislative record

No local legislation recorded

City and provincial ordinances are not yet published in a machine-readable form.

Accountability & legal records

No verified public records found in the available sources.

This is not a “clean record” certification. It means no case has been entered and verified in this database yet. Check the Office of the Ombudsman, Sandiganbayan, and Supreme Court directly.

Elected in the 12 May 2025 elections (term 30 Jun 2025 – 30 Jun 2028). Later changes such as succession, suspension, or death are not reflected unless verified.

How legal statuses are labeled

In the News

Reports from established newsrooms and official records that name this official in a case, investigation, audit or controversy. Each item links to the original. Being named in the news is not proof of wrongdoing; check the legal records above for the official status of any case.

No reviewed news items yet.

Pulse check

Do you approve of how Ben Canama is doing the job?

Pulse check, not a scientific survey: anyone can vote once per device and change their vote any time. It shows how site visitors feel, not public opinion as a whole, and says nothing about any case or allegation.

Family connections

No family relationships or surname bloc on record

No documented relatives, and no other 2025 officials in this province share the surname.

Campaign promises

No campaign promises tracked yet

Promises are added with the date, source, and responsible office. They are only marked “Completed” when there is documentary evidence, never based on campaign statements alone.

COA audits of the LGU during their term

Commission on Audit results for City of Tangub in years Ben Canama was mayor for the whole calendar year. COA audits the local government unit, not the official.

2024
Qualified opinion
33 of 49 prior COA recommendations fully implemented (67.3%), 16 not implemented

COA says an audit opinion is not a rating, score or grade and should not be ranked. It covers whether the financial statements are fairly presented — it is not a finding of wrongdoing. Sources & method →

Awards & achievements

No awards or achievements recorded yet

Each achievement is classified as an official award, a public recognition, an independently verified accomplishment, a self-reported achievement, or a campaign claim. Campaign materials are never treated as independent evidence.

Performance

Public Accountability & Performance Index

A transparent composite of measurable public-service indicators. It does not measure personal integrity, and unproven allegations are never used as a penalty. Weights are demonstration settings you can change.
