Hi @adokuru

MC: does the media publication of the election hub mention your name? What is the backing evidence for your self-claims here? Perhaps you could show emails/contract engagement with the Nigerian government for using this product? Any letter from a govt official on the impact of this?

OC2: was the online webinar considered a leading webinar in digital technology? Can you show invite/appreciation email, number of attendees > 100, any attendee testimonials, what was the engagement level on the webinar in terms of likes comments etc?

OC3: ensure you include quantified metrics to show impact of your work.

Thanks, @pahuja for your feedback.

MC: This was volunteer work; I wasn’t mentioned in the publication, it was the foundation that was mentioned (TAF Africa), I wasn’t paid for it, but the app’s repository in Flutter and the web portal in Next.js are all in my name. I can get a letter stating my involvement in the project.

OC2. I was one of two speakers, and over 260 people were in attendance. I have flyers and posters with my name and image used for promotions, as well as WhatsApp messages of appreciation. There were loads of comments.

OC3: I have quantified metrics for both projects. The first project launched this June and has gained over 4,000 users in five months. I can show trends on Google Analytics and on the admin portal of the application. Recently, we implemented a subscription-based payment system and have quickly gotten 35 paying users.

The second project was also launched this year and has completed over 200 self-tests. We can show metrics from the Play Store and the admin panel, displaying the user count and test count per region.

Does this work?
