OpenDeltaDelta State

See where Delta State's public money goes.

OpenDelta brings the state's published contracts, budgets and reports together on one map: ₦1.06tn of public projects, what each is for, who is delivering it and when it is due. Every figure shows where it comes from, and where something is not yet published, we say so plainly.

  1. Find your place

    Every project registered in your local government area, what it cost, and how that compares with the other 24.

  2. Follow the money

    Who holds it, which are past their completion date, and how much of the budget the register covers.

  3. See what is not yet published

    Schools, clinics, road conditions, market prices — listed so you know they are not yet published.

Boundaries are Delta's real administrative geography; the colour is public money. The rivers and roads underneath come from a public tile service and can be switched off — Delta is a river delta, and the creeks explain a great deal of what the money is doing.
