  • Mission

    Our mission is to use open data to enhance governance, foster accountability, and encourage active citizen engagement across Africa. We strive to provide a comprehensive and accessible repository of information about government officials, their activities, and related public data.

    About Us

    Open Gov Africa - (Office of The Citizens) is a decentralized collaborative platform dedicated to promoting transparency, accountability, and citizen participation across African governments. By leveraging open data, we aim to empower citizens, track government activities, and ensure that public officials are accountable for their actions.

    • The definition of citizens here is not just limited to office holders. Every citizen is in office via the elected/appointed official(s) who are called to serve the people.
    • It is pertinent to note that because of the decentralised and open source nature of this project, it will continue till bad governance in Africa is corrected.
    • To ensure continuity, there will be numerous maintainers to continue the good work of holding leaders accountable.
