About JusticeTechNG
Justice Tech Nigeria is a civic innovation program that empowers tech-savvy professionals, lawyers, entrepreneurs, and activists to build digital solutions that solve real justice sector problems. We're connecting problem-solvers with reform-minded institutions — and building bridges between citizens and systems. Founded with the support of key institutions in law, technology, and governance, the initiative is designed to be a model for collaborative reform in Africa's justice ecosystem.
Africa must invest in the development of the resources that power technologies... As our elders say, "A child who only sells palm kernels will never know the true value of the palm tree." We must go beyond just selling raw materials and invest in AI infrastructure that ensures long-term value creation.
