...mobilizing Gen Z for civic participation in Nigeria
Abuja: Nigeria’s youth make up the largest voting bloc, yet election after election sees low voter registration, low turnout, and widespread apathy. Despite countless civic campaigns before and after elections, we keep repeating the same approach without asking why young people disengage.
Gen-Z wants answers, not slogans. They respond when you give them a valid reason and show them it works. Until we meet them at that level, active civic participation will remain an illusion.
Speak Out Africa Initiative (SOAI) is changing that with Reason2Vote Naija. We’re giving young Nigerians a compelling reason to vote, run, and engage—shifting energy from street protest to ballot protest and rebuilding trust in civic processes.
Join the movement. Give Gen Z a VALID REASON2VOTE.
