Internet Power for Political Parties

Nigerian politics is of global concern. That is why donors generously support our elections, as they do our census and many other projects.

As the campaigns pick up this week, political parties must embrace the INTERNET as part of their multimedia outlets and interactive channels. This is useful both for internal communication and for external interactions.

For a start, they can promptly, cheaply, creatively and honourably engage both the Nigerian and African Diaspora, solicit interest and publicity in the global community, and cutely position our country for positive consideration by discerning investors. By being honest and courageous, they earn high marks for party and nation - the giant of Africa!

The feedback is equally prompt and invaluable, if well managed. This is one reason the present administrations nationwide should have truly embraced e-government and taken this oil-rich Nigeria out of the digital-dungeon, beyond the digital-defeat, all these EIGHT years of democratic governance!!!

Let the leap into cyber-campaign rev up with verve! Now.
