What we are about…​

Chat2Safety was born out of necessity and a passion to address the rising incidents of unreported violence in Nigeria. Founded by Dr. Oladipo Akinmade, a Public Health and Development professional, as part of his doctoral program in Epidemiology at the University of Abuja, the platform is a response to the gaps in violence reporting and prevention across the country.

Growing up in Jos, Plateau State, and having lived and worked in various states in Nigeria, Dr. Akinmade witnessed the widespread impact of violence without sufficient data-driven action. This inspired the creation of Chat2Safety—a digital solution designed to empower communities and authorities to prevent, prepare for, and respond to violence more effectively.
