The Kukah Centre (TKC)

The Kukah Centre was established by Bishop Matthew Hassan Kukah to enhance and encourage greater citizen engagement in Nigeria. The Centre has become active in the last year, working to strengthen national debate, improve governance and encourage Nigerians to take an active role in the country’s leadership. The Centre treats political leadership as a collaborative exercise and aims to promote governance structures which incorporate multiple levels of engagement, including individuals, households, small businesses, the private sector, NGOs and government. Inter-faith dialogue is at the core of the Centre’s work and involves actively promoting conversations among Nigeria’s faith communities, as well as between leaders in faith and public policy. The Kukah Centre aspires to become Nigeria’s leading institution for the promotion of an active and engaged citizenry by providing support for inclusive dialogue and advocacy initiatives.
