Documents & Actions

Help keep Legis360 free and independent

Legis360 makes Nigeria's legislature legible: every bill, motion and vote, in plain language, with no paywall.

Your support helps us:

  • Hold power to account. We put on record what the 10th Assembly is doing, so citizens know the public is watching.
  • Keep it free and open. No paywalls, because everyone deserves clear, unbiased information about decisions made on their behalf.
  • Keep building. Proceedings, scorecards, alerts and the Ilimi assistant all cost money to run and to improve.

We don't want to wait for a more transparent democracy to be handed to us. We want to build it now, with you.
