YNaija2015.com, Nigeria’s leading political blog has announced the second instalment of its novel platform to cover elections in Nigeria, “TheYNaija2015 Situation Room”.
This edition will cover the run-off Governorship elections in Adamawa State this Saturday, 11 October 2014 and it will be presented in partnership with the Co-Creation Hub.
“The first edition was a revelation,” says the editor of YNaija2015.com, Chioma Agwuegbo. “Young Nigerians from across the country stayed engaged with us live throughout the day as we traced the history, complexity and impact of the elections. Thanks to our partners at the CC Hub and support from Oracle, we were also able to deliver live data and analysis as the elections happened. We are set to deliver another situation room which will be the nerve centre of informed, factual, definitive political discourse as #AdamawaDecides.”
The war-room will feature the brightest minds across the media and political spectrum analysing the news, reports, perspectives, and breaking coverage from the elections through a live stream at YNaija2015.com/SituationRoom.
“We have our Managing Editor, Cheta Nwanze leading the boots-on-the-ground coverage in Adamawa state with a team of three,” Agwuegbo said. “From the Situation Room, we will connect with them through our network of analysts including Demola Rewaju, Chuba Ezekwesili, Joachim Mac-Ebong, and Victor Mbidi."
“Clearly, the place to be on Election Day is YNaija2015.com,” Nwanze said.
