February 10, (THEWILL) – Nigeria’s foremost independent parliamentary monitoring organisation and policy think tank, OrderPaper, has unveiled a major rebranding initiative aimed at reinforcing its identity and enhancing civic engagement in governance.
Speaking on Monday, Founder/CEO Oke Epia explained that the transformation reflects the organization’s continued commitment to bridging the gap between parliament, policy, and the public through the strategic use of data and technology.
As part of the rebrand, OrderPaper introduced a new logo featuring an updated green color palette that, according to the statement, signifies trust, innovation, and the organization’s evolution into a transparent and inclusive democracy partner.
“The new identity is deliberately crafted to symbolize clarity, objectivity, and accessibility in governance and citizen engagement,” the statement read.
A key component of the rebranding is the launch of a dedicated media arm, Parliament Reports, accessible at www.parliamentreports.com.
The platform provides legislative intelligence, policy analysis, and comprehensive coverage of Nigeria’s national and state assemblies, reinforcing OrderPaper’s commitment to delivering timely and relevant data that supports informed decision-making by citizens and stakeholders alike. A new WhatsApp channel has also been set up to bolster this renewed focus on public engagement.
With nearly a decade of experience in social entrepreneurship and activism, OrderPaper has earned a reputation as a trailblazer in civic engagement, capacity building, and policy advocacy.
The organisation envisions becoming Africa’s most authoritative reference for parliamentary reporting and public policy advisory, with a mission to provide accessible, reliable parliamentary data that empowers citizens and facilitates effective governance.
“Our rebranding is more than a visual update; it represents our renewed commitment to fostering transparency, accountability, and active citizenship. We believe that informed citizens are essential for effective governance, and through our innovative approaches, we aim to empower all stakeholders to demand greater accountability and optimal service delivery from their elected representatives,” Epia said.
In a bid to further drive public engagement, OrderPaper has introduced a gap-bridging mechanism on its redesigned website, called Reach Your Rep, which enables citizens to directly connect with their representatives in the National Assembly.
The organisation has also launched a social community—People’s Parliament—on Facebook and WhatsApp to amplify efforts across its various initiatives including,
“RemTrack: A digital platform for public engagement on energy transition, 5 climate change, transparency, accountability, and host community beneficiation in Nigeria’s extractive sector.
“ConsTrack: A platform providing verified data on the implementation of public projects in Nigeria, empowering citizens to monitor and report on project progress.
“Leg’ACE: The Legislative Accountability and Constituency Engagement; programme, which fosters meaningful interactions, open dialogue, and active participation in the legislative process, effectively bridging the gap between citizens and the legislature.
“Scorecard Nigeria: Our data-driven legislative accountability work with trailblazing impact will be anchored on a dedicated platform to be unveiled soon. This is to further drive public engagement around our periodic performance appraisals of the National Assembly.
“Most Valuable Parliamentarian (MVP) Hall of Fame: The rebranding initiative seeks to strengthen and institutionalise Nigeria’s first-ever MVP Hall of Fame initiative birthed by OrderPaper in 2023 to recognise and celebrate the best of the best performers at the end of the legislative tenure.”
