Written by: Admin Posted On: 2025-07-14 15:32:20
Setting up a non-profit, NGO, religious body, or community foundation in Nigeria involves
more than just a noble mission. One critical legal requirement that many overlook is the
Publication of Incorporation of Trustees. This step is essential for compliance with the
Corporate Affairs Commission (CAC) and for building public trust.
What is Incorporation of Trustees?
Incorporation of Trustees is a legal process through which non-profits and religious
organizations become officially recognized as corporate entities in Nigeria. This status allows
them to operate legally, own property, open bank accounts, and be protected under the law.
Why is Publication Important?
Once you’ve registered your trustees with the CAC, you are required to publish a notice of
incorporation in two national newspapers. This is to notify the public of your organization’s
existence and provide transparency about your trustees and mission.
What Should Be Included in the Publication?
The notice typically includes:
● The name of the organization
● Names of the trustees
● Aims and objectives
● Registered address
