Origins and legacy of the Murtala Muhammed Foundation.

Who We Are
The Murtala Muhammed Foundation is a not-for-profit organisation that advocates for and catalyses high-impact interventions on social issues, technology, leadership, and governance in Nigeria.
Since inception in 2001, we have empowered a significant number of young women and men across Africa to achieve their full potential. We do this by facilitating access to public health emergency services, educational support, skills acquisition, and socio-economic development opportunities — as well as by promoting upstanding governance and advocating for gender equality.

To cultivate impactful partnerships to empower the most marginalised communities across Africa, fostering inclusive growth and sustainable development.
Our Vision
A world where possibilities and opportunities are the same for everyone, regardless of gender or origin.
