DATA SOURCES
Every fact on this hub traces back to one of the sources below. Where a page cites a specific article or portal page, that link is given directly on the page itself — this list is the full set of outlets we draw from and check against.
INEC (Independent National Electoral Commission)
The official electoral commission — our primary source for registration, polling-unit lookup, the election timetable, party lists, and results. When any hub page's information could differ from INEC's own current page, INEC's page is correct, not ours — every relevant page links directly to the specific INEC source it used.
NGElections
An independent election-tracking site we cite for candidate and party-field information where INEC has not yet published a final list — always labelled as a secondary/tracked source, never presented as official.
Punch
A Nigerian news outlet cited for candidate and party reporting where we need a named, checkable source for a claim not yet confirmed by INEC.
BBC Pidgin
Cited for accessible, plain-language coverage of specific election developments.
