Source Work Roadmap

The Nigeria Papers™ is live in public beta. The pages and tools are real, but several datasets are still being moved from structural scaffolding to fully source-backed records. This page tracks that work openly.

• State debt and budget source attachment

  In Progress

  Row-by-row links to DMO subnational bulletins, state budget PDFs and state Auditor-General reports for all 36 states + FCT.

• President debt and deficit source attachment

  In Progress

  Each presidency row in /debt linked to the exact DMO quarterly bulletin or CBN statistical bulletin page.

• Project and contract citation review

  In Progress

  Every project and contract dossier to carry a primary BPP / NOCOPO / Budget Office citation before leaving Editorial Draft.

• News-audit scoring review

  Next

  Move outlet entries from editorial draft to published scores against the public rubric, with reviewer initials.

• Evidence Vault expansion

  Ongoing

  Continuous ingestion of DMO, NBS, CBN, Budget Office, BPP/NOCOPO, World Bank, IMF and Auditor-General records.

• AI Investigator source expansion

  Ongoing

  Grow the retrieval corpus so answers cite multiple primary sources per claim and refuse confidently when none exist.

• Community moderation rollout

  Next

  Public discussions with reviewer queue, abuse controls, and clear separation between citizen submissions and editorial findings.

• Secure intake hardening

  Next

  Independent security review of the Submit-a-Lead pipeline, Tor onion mirror, and metadata-strip tooling.
