What ERAD 2.0 actually does
ERAD stands for Election Result Analysis Dashboard. Yiaga Africa built it in 2022. Version 2.0 tracks, aggregates, analyses and visualises results INEC already published on IReV. It does not declare winners. It shows what was uploaded, when it landed, and where gaps appear.
Citizens, journalists, civil society and politicians use the public dashboard at erad.ng. Floor Managers and Data Clerks keep that pipeline honest from the Abuja data centre.

Open roles in this Yiaga Africa ERAD 2.0 recruitment 2026
1. Data Clerk
Data Clerks capture polling unit results from IReV into ERAD 2.0. Speed matters. Accuracy matters more. Recent Osun cycle training already put 40 clerks through the same workflow.
- Enter and verify result figures
- Clean messy uploads
- Work long election-day shifts with a team
- Flag obvious mismatches for supervisors
2. Floor Manager (Tech Support)
Floor Managers keep the data floor running. When a laptop freezes or a clerk hits a portal error, you fix it. You also keep traffic moving so the dashboard does not stall.
- Tech support on the data-centre floor
- Help clerks stay on the live IReV feed
- Escalate system issues fast
- Keep workstations and connectivity usable

Who should apply
Yiaga Africa did not publish a full 2026 JD pack in the flyer. Past Data Clerk cycles and the current call point to the same profile.

- Fast, accurate data entry
- Microsoft Office basics
- Detail first, speed second
- Can work under election-day pressure
- Non-partisan

Floor Manager applicants need extra tech know-how: troubleshooting, basic networks, keeping many workstations alive at once.

What the job looks like on election night
Results hit IReV in waves. Some sheets are clear. Some are crooked photos. Some arrive late. Clerks type. Supervisors check. Floor Managers keep the room online. Yiaga Africa already ran this model in Ekiti and Osun 2026 cycles and in the 2023 general election data centre.
ERAD then rolls figures up by ward, LGA and state and publishes charts the public can audit. That is the product you are staffing.
Pay, duration and what is still unconfirmed
The September 2026 call does not list salary, daily rate or exact contract weeks. Treat it as paid ad-hoc work in Abuja, not a permanent staff role. Ask for the stipend, shift hours, feeding and transport in writing if shortlisted. Do not assume NGO prestige equals high pay.
Documents to prepare now
- Updated CV (Word or PDF as the form allows)
- Valid ID
- Proof you can be in Abuja
- Laptop specs if asked
- Two referees who will pick up the phone

Common mistakes that kill applications

- Empty or two-line CV
- Party branding on social profiles you link
- Wrong role link
- Waiting for “they will email me the form”
