Legislative record
Term-limit seat moves
Patterns where a seat stayed with this official or the same surname after a term limit. These moves are legal; the level measures how concentrated the seat became, not wrongdoing.
Accountability & legal records
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.
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.
Pulse check
Do you approve of how Philip Dacayo 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.

Elected in the 2023 barangay & SK elections (DILG directory). Matched by last name only within Nueva Vizcaya; a common surname is very likely to include unrelated families. The list above shows only the punong barangay and SK chairs.
A surname bloc is officials elected in one province who carry the same surname as last or middle name; barangay & SK officials with the same last name are listed separately. Shared names may not mean kinship, and a bloc is not evidence of wrongdoing. Definition and data:BetterGov.ph Dynasties

COA audits of the LGU during their term
Commission on Audit results for Solano in years Philip Dacayo was mayor for the whole calendar year. COA audits the local government unit, not the official.
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 →
