About The Electoral Hub
Our History
A commitment to stronger electoral processes, better information and more credible elections in Nigeria.
2019The year The Electoral Hub was established
Our Story
The Electoral Hub, an affiliate of the Initiative for Research, Innovation and Advocacy in Development (IRIAD), was established in 2019. It is conceptualised to complement the roles and activities of the different institutions, stakeholders and drivers of the electoral process and governance by providing back-end support services to stakeholders and institutions involved in the electoral process.
This is in recognition of the lack of adequate data and resources on elections in Nigeria. The Electoral Hub was founded to help fill this gap through research, impact advocacy and targeted training, all aimed at improving the integrity and credibility of the electoral process.
