I believe that is the fastest way to get the old people to know we mean business with this, the re should beseveral anthems and all should have 'lightupnigeria' as a refrain, any aspiring politician who is unable to sing it, give the plans he has to achieve it and show a passion to achieving it should have his presidential/governorship/ministerial/councillorship etc aspirations ducked into Lagos lagoon with immediate effect!

We never can tell, something concrete can actually come out of this movement.

The news that <i>"They have the diesel king over a barrel"</i> via next123, perhaps the big news that is being overshadowed by the Boko Haram madness. Is information like <i>" nothing came close to his recent blockbuster at the ruling People's Democratic Party fund raising event for its secretariat project, where his N1 billion donation took care of 10 percent of the projected cost of the building"</i> in the public domain? Private Public Partnership? How do we fire back? How do we expose more of these info as Forbes.com and others celebrate another African billionaire?

It is a Nigerian endeavour and not based on age, ethnicity, gender, sexual orientation. I never understand this assumption that older people dont use the internet or social media!

I had no idea this was even happening; you know me being a non-Twitter-er and all. I def agree with you that frankly all this is for show unless it leads to more substantive efforts down the line. It would represent a huge achievement if this can be harnessed to bring about actual results in the future. Only time will tell. Cool post.
