Pillar 02 · Spending Monitoring

Spending vs ceiling

For each published candidate, the estimated campaign spending built from reviewed evidence, set against the statutory ceiling for the office (Electoral Act 2026, s.92(2)–(7)). There is no score: every number below can be traced to its sources on the candidate's profile.

Documented
Naira amounts reported in articles a reviewer checked, where the quoted figure was found in the article text.
Modelled
Reviewed rallies costed with the rate card (pfi-rate-card-v1-assumptions) from the reported crowd size. Cash handouts are excluded.
Estimated
Documented plus the modelled mid-point. Items awaiting review are listed but never counted.

Figures are estimates built from published reporting and a cost model. They are not findings that any law was broken. Each figure links to its source. To report an error, use the correction link on the page. Estimates are a floor built only from what has been reported and reviewed; they are not an audit of the campaign's accounts.
