root mobilization throughout the nation using a holistic and cross border brand campaigns and awareness programs: Geared towards

engagement and accountability across board.

Through a new kind of campaign

The biggest denominator to an effective branding is…

THE MESSAGE

An analytical study why previous national rebranding campaigns failed

can be seen quickly in their messages… a message that is not inclusive

Some of the Past Rebranding Projects

1.Ethical Revolution – Alh Shehu Shagari era2.War Against Indiscipline (WAI) – General Mohammadu

Buhari (1984)3.Mass Mobilization for Social Justice, Self-Reliance and

Economic Recovery (MAMSER) – General Ibrahim Babangida era

4.War Against Indiscipline and Corruption (WAIC) – General Sani Abacha (1994)

5.Heart of Africa Foundation – Olusegun Obasanjo6.Good People, Great Nation – Dora Akunyili (2009)

Kayode Fayemi traced the failure of efforts at rebranding Nigeria to lack of value and the inability of successive administrations to articulate a strategic national vision and attune institutional realities to match the vision.

For the first time in our history we are creating an inclusive message in the

CHANGE Mantra

A grass-root , community based rebranding with sustainability mode

Overcoming the challenge of THEIR PROGRAM

Through a new paradigm shift:YOUR PROGRAM, OUR

PROGRAM, MY PROGRAM

… all inclusive design

Melting the divide:A message which will elicit cross border

participation must be inclusive and equally involving.

It should not be government design for the people but must be people’s common program and project.

OUR SLOGAN… YOUR SLOGAN… MY SLOGAN

To be translated to major Nigerian languages

THE CHANGE YOU

WANT STARTS WITH YOU

The Change we want should become everybody’s change… our change
