Who Did This to Nigeria?

Watchers of the Cable News Network (CNN) must have seen the commercial on Nigeria. The commercial is intended to market Nigeria and convince tourists and investors to explore Nigeria's potentials.

If we recall very well, the footage is part of the Heart of Africa Project, conceived to convince the international community of Nigeria's positive potentials. Away from 419. Away from drug trafficking. Away from crime. Away from instability. In the language of some, it is part of the project, designed to spruce up Nigeria's image and demolish some age-old stereotypes, which make every Nigerian with the green passport, a suspect at every major airport in the world.

When the project was conceived and launched, many Nigerians applauded it as long overdue. Even government's worst critics in the media and civil society, thought it was the right thing to do, though, they were skeptical of government's faithfulness to the implementation of the project estimated to cost N600million.More
