Read MoreNigeria First is a national initiative built on a simple but powerful belief: when Nigerians put the nation first, we all rise together. It is a movement that highlights what we have achieved as a people, amplifies the stories that matter, and inspires citizens to take pride in our collective progress.
For too long, conversations about Nigeria have been dominated by challenges. Nigeria First seeks to shift the narrative — from what is broken, to what is being built; from what divides us, to what unites us; from despair, to possibility.
Nigeria is the largest economy in Africa, a cultural giant, and home to some of the world’s most innovative and resilient people. From world-class infrastructure projects to groundbreaking digital innovation, from our creative industries conquering global charts to our farmers feeding millions — there is much to be proud of, and even more to build upon.
Nigeria First is our mantra and our bragging right. It is a collective vow to own our narrative, champion our progress, and celebrate our homegrown potential. We are committed to forging a legacy that empowers the next generation of Nigerians—to dream bigger, build bolder, and lead with unwavering pride. This is more than a statement; it is our active commitment to building a nation we can all believe in.
