Rescue Nigeria is now an arm of IGIC — and that is good news for citizens
From today, the movement you know as Rescue Nigeria leads with its registered name: the Initiative for Good and Informed Citizenship. Here is what changes — and what never will.

Since our launch on Nigeria's 60th Independence Day, Rescue Nigeria has been registered with the Corporate Affairs Commission as the Initiative for Good and Informed Citizenship (IGIC). Starting today, IGIC becomes the name we lead with, and Rescue Nigeria becomes its primary arm — the public movement through which IGIC mobilises citizens.
Why the change? Because the name describes the mission. Nigeria's deepest problem is not a shortage of complaints; it is a shortage of informed, organised and demanding citizens. IGIC puts that idea at the centre of everything we do: civic education, the People's Parliament, petitions, strategic litigation and relentless public communication.
What stays the same? Everything that matters. We remain non-partisan and not affiliated to any political party. We remain lawful and non-violent. Our Common Good Pledge is unchanged. And our tagline still says it best: …working together for the common good.
This new website is the movement's central portal — the single source of truth for our statements, petitions, campaigns, events and accountability reports. Explore it, share it, and if you have not already, take the pledge.
