Civil society is the space between government and citizens: the organisations, movements, associations, and platforms that hold government accountable, provide services government does not, and give citizens a collective voice. In Nigeria, civil society includes religious organisations, trade unions, professional associations, community development associations, media organisations, and advocacy groups. They are not government. They are not businesses. They are, in the broadest sense, organised citizens. Some of the organisations doing important civic work in Nigeria: Yiaga Africa specialises in elections and democracy. They train citizen observers, run voter education programmes, and use data to monitor elections and detect irregularities. Their Watching the Vote parallel vote tabulation programme has produced some of the most rigorous independent data on Nigerian electoral conduct available to the public. BudgIT is a civic technology organisation that takes Nigeria's federal and state government budgets, dense documents that most citizens cannot read, and turns them into plain-language data visualisations and infographics. Their core argument: a citizen who understands where government money goes is a citizen who can hold government to account. Enough is Enough Nigeria (EiE) focuses on voter education, civic responsibility, and youth political participation. The organisation has worked to build a culture of civic engagement among young Nigerians, including through voter registration and political literacy campaigns.
