About report verifying:
All reports are checked before they are published here. We will publish most reports that are sent by web and email unless they are for personal promotion or contain inappropriate material.
Reports come from a variety of sources including civil society organisations, community groups, NGO's, Journalists, activists and official news sources in and outside of Nigeria.
Reports are shown as verified if they are from official news sources, reputable partner organisations, reputable known individuals, or other verifiable sources. Reports submitted by unknown organisations and individuals may be just as valid, but will be marked as unverified.
You can filter reports by one of the following categories:
| Displacements and evictions | Community empowerment and peace building | Human rights abuses | Environmental abuses | Project monitoring / corruption | Violent incidents | Election monitoring |
