To enlighten and sensitize Nigerians on their civic and political responsibilities — ensuring the emergence of credible leaders for accountable governance.

Establish direct engagement with electorates seeking positive change.
Position citizens as decisive stakeholders in Nigeria’s power equation.

About “A Nite 4 Naija”
A Nite 4 Naija is a national recognition and award ceremony that celebrates leadership, excellence, and citizenship impact.
It honors leaders, advocates, and creative trailblazers who have demonstrated integrity, innovation, and patriotism in shaping Nigeria’s growth and democratic development.
It is more than an award.
It is a movement of engagement — where citizens and leaders meet at the intersection of accountability and hope.
—
Nomination Process
There are 18 award categories in total, covering Nigeria’s six geo-political zones — South East, South South, South West, North West, North East, and North Central — ensuring that no region is left unrepresented.
The only exception is the Best FCT Minister Category, as the South-East has never produced an FCT Minister.
The Nomination Committee for A Nite 4 Naija 2025 was chaired by Simon Imobo-Tswam, a respected public intellectual and accomplished media professional, with Ifeoma Nkem, a distinguished journalist, serving as Secretary.
Guided by media recommendations and the Independent Media Governance Assessment Reports (May 2024 – May 2025), the Committee received submissions between June and July 2025, with final screening concluded in August–September 2025.
Although the media list of nominees was first released on 1st October 2025, the public voting will officially open on 1st November and close on 30th November 2025.
