The National Orientation Agency (NOA) has officially unveiled the CLHEEAN Mobile App, a groundbreaking digital platform designed to transform how citizens interact with government, access information, and participate in national development.
Speaking at the unveiling, the Director-General National Orientation Agency, Mallam Lanre Issa-Onilu, described the launch as a defining moment in Nigeria’s democratic journey, one that goes beyond introducing a digital tool to fundamentally reshaping the relationship between government and the people.
“For too long, we have faced a familiar challenge: citizens who want to be heard, and systems that do not always listen,” the Director-General stated. “Today, we begin closing that gap.”
He emphasised that the CLHEEAN Mobile App introduces a unified, user-friendly platform that empowers Nigerians with direct access to civic education, real-time government information, and interactive engagement tools.
“With an AI-powered voice and chat assistant, multilingual capabilities in Hausa, Yoruba, and Igbo, and seamless feedback channels, governance becomes simple, accessible, and inclusive. Simply put, government is now in your pocket,” the Director General added.
The platform represents a shift toward participatory governance where citizens are not only informed but actively involved in shaping policies and national discourse.
The Director-General further noted that the initiative aligns with the Renewed Hope Agenda of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, reinforcing key priorities such as inclusive governance, transparency, and accountability.
“This is more than technology. It is a new way of governing, one that ensures citizens are not just informed, but involved; not just heard, but empowered,” he said.
Highlighting the people-centered nature of the initiative, Issa-Onilu stressed that the app is designed to amplify citizen voices and strengthen trust between government and the public.
“Governance works best when citizens are heard, government listens, and action follows,” the DG emphasised.
Key Features of the CLHEEAN Mobile App include:
* Civic Education – The Explainer Newsletter: Enhancing public understanding of government policies, rights, and civic responsibilities.
* AI Voice & Chat Assistant: Providing instant answers and guidance in major Nigerian languages, making governance more accessible.
* Feedback & Reporting Tools: Allowing citizens to report issues, share ideas, and directly influence government action.
* Engagement Platforms: Including campus debates, quizzes, community forums, and idea submission channels to encourage active participation.
* Real-Time Information & Entertainment: Delivering timely updates, announcements, and engaging content to keep citizens informed and connected.
The NOA called on all Nigerians to download the CLHEEAN App and actively participate in nation-building.
“This is more than a launch, it is a commitment. A bridge. A movement toward a Nigeria where every voice matters,” the Director-General concluded.
The CLHEEAN Mobile App is now available for download on both Apple iOS and Android devices, ensuring that Nigerians across different platforms can easily access and engage with the application.
