UDEME Africa
Online/Digital
In Nigeria, the fight against corruption and ineffective service delivery from the government is receiving increased attention and innovative ideas, especially in the open data advocacy space.
UDEME is a social accountability platform designed to hold the Nigerian government accountable for funds released for developmental projects. These projects usually are classified under capital, constituency and ecological projects and make up about 40% of Nigeria's annual budgets. To ascertain how these funds are spent, UDEME entails in-depth fieldwork through physical examination of projects and dissemination of generated information to the public space for citizens' awareness.
UDEME was established in 2018 by the Centre for Journalism Innovation and Development (CJID), formerly the Premium Times Centre for Investigative Journalism (PTCIJ). The Platform (www.udeme.africa) was launched on February 20th, 2018 - a repository of capital and constituency projects allocation from 2015 till date. Source

By Hussain Wahab For decades, the people of Mugadi Koko in Kebbi State, Northwest Nigeria, have lived without access to potable water. Restricted to unhealthy water sources where children swim, nomads wash, and animals dip their mouths, residents risk contracting waterborne diseases.

However, their expectations were only fulfilled three years later as the health facility remains locked upon completion despite its huge financial investment. During a visit by the reporter to the project site in April, residents expressed displeasure with the closure.
