Mob Watch seeks to fill the gap in the availability of data on how many people have been victims of mob justice in Nigeria. Not all victims of mob justice get killed, some are lucky to escape it but one thing is common, the dehumanisation they all face.
This projects fills this vacuum by providing collated and collated data of all these victims starting from May 2022 till present.
A Nigeria where no one is dehumanised, harmed, or killed by mob violence—and where every act is recorded, remembered, and met with accountability. MobWatch envisions a future where researchers, journalists, advocates, and the public can easily access reliable data on mob justice, helping to drive change through evidence, not silence.
