Nigerian Corruption Spotter
Quick Start Workflow
- •LOAD budget data (PDF, JSON, or structured text)
- •RUN red flag scan (see references/red-flags.md)
- •CALCULATE anomaly scores (see references/benchmarks.md)
- •QUANTIFY impact (see references/impact-calculator.md)
- •GENERATE report with findings
Red Flag Categories
Category A: Structural (High Confidence)
- •Budget padding: Line items 200%+ above previous year
- •Phantom projects: Capital allocations with no implementation
- •Vague descriptions: "Miscellaneous", "Sundry" over ₦100M
Category B: Ratio Anomalies
- •Overhead > Capital in development MDAs
- •Travel > Service Delivery costs
- •Admin > 30% of total allocation
Category C: Comparative
- •Allocation 150%+ above peer states
- •100%+ YoY increase without policy change
Risk Scoring
Score = (Structural Flags × 3) + (Ratio Anomalies × 2) + (Comparative × 1)
- •0-3: Low | 4-6: Medium | 7-9: High | 10+: Critical
