You are tired of the status quo, you’ve protested, advocated and you want to run for office or serve in government in 2023 or sometime in the future. The reality is that fixing Nigeria is rocket science. There are no easy answers or shortcuts, you may have good intentions, a passion to serve and to do what is right but without competence, capacity and character you will fail just like those before you.  

That is why you will need to learn how to lead, govern a complex nation, advocate, craft and implement policies that are inclusive.
The School of Politics, Policy and Governance, is training a disruptive breed of mission-driven politicians that will run for office and win an election.

Our curriculum is designed as a 21st Century-type Disruptive Thinking leadership program to train 5000 new political leaders in five years who will run for elective offices at State and Federal levels in legislative and executive offices, thus presenting the electorate with top quality choices of candidates.
