“… the labour of our heroes past shall never be in vain …” |
All of them on our list are fondly remembered as credible in their chosen fields. These are gems who created a cult followership that still provides leadership and inspiration in Nigeria years after their deaths. These are models whose legacies are worth being globalised for historians, researchers, students and the younger generations.
However, the legacies of these heroes might be lost on the younger generations if efforts are not made to re-package them on the internet. In this information age, what is currently available on these heroes on the internet is rather too skeletal and inadequate. For all their contributions, it is unacceptable to an appreciative people not to globalise their lives and march through this terretrials divide.
It is within this framework that Livingprojects Ltd is embarking on an epochal mission to chronicle and globalise the lives, times and legacies of 20 great Nigerians in a refreshing manner on their individual memorial websites.
Contents of the Memorial Websites:
- Profiles.
- Their pictures covering their early years, education, professional practices, weddings and families.
- Pictures covering their careers and associates.
- Their speeches
- Internet version of all their books.
- Interpreting their lives
a. Articles by associates b. Press clippings c. Feedback.
