“EiE’s story is proof that a small group of committed citizens can reawaken a nation’s conscience. For fifteen years, we have turned civic frustration into civic action – demanding better, insisting on truth, and showing that democracy only works when citizens do. As we enter this next chapter, our mission is unchanged: to keep the flame of accountability burning, and to remind every Nigerian that leadership begins with citizenship.”

‘Since its founding in 2010, EiE has been at the forefront of Nigeria’s democratic awakening. Its pioneering #RSVP (Register, Select, Vote, Protect) campaign mobilised millions of young voters, while the #OfficeOfTheCitizen platform redefined civic education and participation in the digital era.

‘From its fearless stance during the #EndSARS protests to its sustained campaigns for electoral reform, constitutional accountability, and government transparency, EiE has cemented its place as a moral compass in moments of national reckoning, a movement that continues to remind power of its true purpose: service to the people’.
