Ahead of Anambra Election scheduled for Saturday, November 8th 2025, a civic-tech platform that turns citizen evidence into public accountability, Citizen Monitors, has announced the rollout of its new election-monitoring web application.
The application is designed to let citizens document and verify what happens at polling units across the state.
A statement by the platform said: “The web app allows users to capture, upload, and view real-time reports from polling units, creating a public evidence base for transparent elections.
“• Capture & upload evidence: Users can upload clear photos or videos of result sheets and incidents, tagged to their polling units.
“• Automatic context: Each report includes timestamp and GPS location for easy verification.
“• Peer review: Reports are checked by other users before appearing on the public dashboard.
“• Live view: A statewide map and ticker display verified updates as they come in.
“Election day should be clear, not chaotic. The platform helps turn citizens into calm, coordinated witnesses instead of bystanders.
“Trust grows when people can see the evidence. With this app, Anambra can protect its polling units with facts, not noise,” Co-founder of Citizen Monitors Adeshope Haastrup said.
“Our message is simple: see it, record it, verify it. If each unit plays its part, election day becomes clearer and safer for everyone,” spokesperson for Citizen Monitors Olajumoke Alawode-James said.
