Design the Court Process Reforms That Could Clear Nigeria's Case Backlog
Nigerian courts have over 1 million pending cases. Some cases have been pending for 20 years. Design the process reform, technology, or service model that actually reduces this backlog.
Design a Faster, Fairer Land Dispute Resolution System for Nigeria
Land disputes are the most common source of community violence in Nigeria and the most clogged category in the courts. Design the alternative resolution pathway that bypasses both the court queue and the mob.
Price and Sell Climate Risk Insurance for African MSMEs
Flooding, drought, and extreme heat are already destroying African small businesses. The insurance industry has no product for them. Design the climate risk policy that fills this gap by 2027.
Build an Insurance Fraud Detection System for Nigerian Insurers
Insurance fraud costs the Nigerian industry an estimated ₦300 billion annually. Most small insurers have no fraud detection infrastructure. Design the shared intelligence system that levels the field.
Give Nigerians Visibility Into What Is Happening with Their Court Cases
A litigant in Nigeria often does not know when their case will be heard, what stage it is at, or whether their lawyer has attended. Design the transparency system that ends this information blackout.
Modernise Claims Processing for Nigeria's 500 Small Insurance Companies
Most Nigerian insurance companies still process claims manually. The resulting delays, errors, and fraud cost the industry and customers dearly. Design the digital claims platform sized for small insurers.
Turn Nigeria's Construction Waste into a Circular Economy
Nigerian construction sites generate millions of tonnes of concrete, steel, and timber waste every year. Almost all of it goes to landfill or illegal dumps. Design the market that recycles it profitably.
Take Construction Permitting in Nigerian Cities Fully Digital
Getting a building permit in Lagos takes an average of 8 months and 19 procedures. Most builders skip it entirely. Design the digital process that makes compliance the easier choice.
Stop Sub-Standard Building Materials from Reaching Nigerian Construction Sites
Iron rods, cement, and blocks of inadequate quality contribute to building collapses. Design a quality verification system at the point of sale — not after the building falls down.
Give Nigerian Communities the Tools to Monitor Their Own Infrastructure
Broken boreholes, collapsed bridges, and failed water points sit unrepaired for months because there is no reliable system for communities to report and track government maintenance response. Fix this.
Bring Nigerian Women Back to Work After Career Breaks
Over 60% of Nigerian women who leave formal employment after having children never return. This is not a preference — it is a structural failure. Design the returner programme that changes this.
Build the Infrastructure That Makes Nigeria a Global Remote Work Hub
Nigeria produces 680,000 graduates a year. Many of them could work for international companies remotely. The infrastructure gaps that stop them are solvable. Design the solution.
