A civic group, The Citizens Project has said President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s administration may be setting a new record in Africa as the most documented president by citizens and organisations.
The group through its Chief Facilitator/Co-Convener, Dr.Sam Okey Nwosu in a statement revealed that since President Tinubu’s assumption of office May 29, 2023, the organisation has been closely tracking his policies, reforms, appointments, and major decisions, adding that unlike traditional government records, the initiative is entirely citizen-led and focused on transparency and accountability.
The project has produced The Reform Index™, a growing collection of records that highlight key actions taken by the Tinubu administration, which include the removal of fuel subsidies, currency reforms, regional development efforts, and major judicial appointments.
Nwosu said initiative operates across Nigeria’s 36 states and the Federal Capital Territory, stressing that its goal is to make governance more visible and measurable — not to praise or criticize the government, but to ensure democracy is active beyond just elections.
“This isn’t about praise or criticism, it is about making governance visible and reminding everyone that democracy thrives when people are not just voting, but also watching.
“As President Tinubu moves into the second half of his tenure, the long-term impact of his reforms remains to be seen. But one thing is clear: this presidency will be one of the most documented in African history,” he added.
He mentioned that his majesty Ooni Adeyeye Enitan Ogunwusi, CFR, Ooni of Ife and His Royal Highness, Alh. Nasir Ado Bayero, OFR are key national patrons and drivers of The Citizens Project.
