Strong electoral processes are shaped not only by legal frameworks, but also by effective implementation, institutional coordination, and public trust. Ahead of the 2027 general elections, and in collaboration with our partners at the UK’s Westminster Foundation for Democracy (WFD), efforts are ongoing to support political parties and Nigeria’s electoral umpire in strengthening reporting, compliance, and oversight systems. The continued advancement of democratic processes depends on transparency, consistency, and sustained commitment to institutional best practices. #EUinNigeria #EU4DemocracyNG

Ahead of the Ekiti State governorship election, we’re shaking up voter education. Every electorate counts, no exceptions. Our strategy? Arm grassroots women and male allies with the tools to spread voter knowledge through trusted community networks. It’s bold, it’s local, and it sticks, delivering sharp, repeated, culturally grounded messages that cut through the noise, spark real understanding, and drive lasting change where it matters most. #EUinNigeria #EU4DemocracyNG

The safety of journalists is a pillar of democracy. Ahead of the Ekiti and Osun off-cycle elections, our programme is intensifying efforts to strengthen media protection through stakeholder engagement and dialogue. The focus is on documented attacks against journalists, addressing accountability gaps, and reinforcing safer working conditions. The approach is practical, collaborative, and aimed at strengthening the safeguards needed to protect press freedom where it matters most. #EUinNigeria #EU4DemocracyNG

We convened senior media leaders at the Federal Radio Corporation of Nigeria for a high-level session focused on turning editorial pledges into practical newsroom strategies. This engagement is part of our commitment aimed at strengthening editorial integrity, enhancing fact-checking systems, advancing inclusive and accurate voter education, and equipping newsrooms to better navigate misinformation and deliver credible electoral coverage. #EUinNigeria #EU4DemocracyNG

Today, we recognise the people who keep Nigeria moving. From those shaping institutions to those working within communities, every effort matters. Every contribution counts. Through the EU Support to Democratic Governance in Nigeria programme, the European Union continues to support systems that value participation, strengthen accountability, and create space for citizens to be heard. Because strong democracies are built by people. And sustained by their work. Happy Workers’ Day. #EUinNigeria #EU4DemocracyNG

INEC runs Nigeria’s elections, but even if the law doesn’t require full accountability, the future demands it. #balance4her #WomenInLeadership #EUfunded #nwtf @outchaygirl @euinnigeria @eu_sdgn @yiaga @taf__africa

Early warning and strong stakeholder coordination remain key to peaceful and credible elections in Osun State. Across Osun East (Ile-Ife) and Osun West (Ede), we convened a Stakeholders’ Validation Forum to review the Political, Social, and Security Context Analysis and Compliance Assessment Report ahead of the 15 August 2026 Governorship Election. We engaged INEC, security agencies, parties, CSOs, and leaders to validate risks and strengthen preparedness for a peaceful, inclusive election. #EUSDGN #EU4DemocracyNG
