Oluseun Onigbinde co-founded BudgIT at a Lagos hackathon in 2011 with one conviction: that the gap between what Nigeria's budget data showed and what citizens could understand was itself a governance failure. Fifteen years later, he runs Africa's most recognised fiscal transparency organisation across six countries — and he'll tell you the theory he built it on may need rewriting.
In this episode, we get into the founding frustration that made him walk away from First Bank, why factivism won't cure misinformation, whether the transmission line between citizen anger and institutional change is broken, what civic tech in Africa consistently gets wrong, and what he would do differently if he were starting BudgIT today.
A rare conversation with a builder who has been at it long enough to question his own assumptions.
