Kudos to the team that came up with the adds, I believe it'll make an impact.
I'm particularly impressed about the adult education add with Pete Edochie. As for the other one with Emmanuella, I think its shallow, and not very realistic.
Regardless, well done team Nigeria.

I have a confession to make.
The Wikipedia awareness ads from Nigeria are the best Wikipedia ads I've seen so far, especially the one involving the 'god' known as Wikipedia.
Very relatable and I'm sure will definitely make an impact and bring about awareness!
Kudos to the team behind!

I thought so too very catchy and considering the African terrain and how
popular some of the characters are in Africa.
I think the real work know is to get a lot of people editing Wikipedia.
Best,
Justice.
