This post was initially billed to be a review of the newly launched, Ondo state official website, sitting pretty at http://www.ondostate.gov.ng/
Because that is what it is, pretty! And no more.
Then I ran into really un-pretty stuff during research.
Hosted at http://www.ondonet.org is a mediocre piece of web-engineering, pretending, or is it purporting to provide some 'interesting' information about the government of Ondo state.
And the more I surfed the site, the more confused I was...
Someone please tell me this website - http://www.ondonet.org is a piece of freeware, that is, no one is paying for that ?
It has to be one huge joke and if this is unofficial, the government of Ondo state should be asking whoever is behind this website to stop the embarrassment. With a wo-sere o! postcard to send him away.
On this page, there is a youtube video of one Robert Szlizs - the 'architect' behind the project.
The video is as grainy as ones recorded in the 70s shortly after Ondo state was created. Except would still be of better quality.
You wonder how hard it can be to record PR! with a cheap Nokia camera...let alone how much it costs to hire a VHS camcorder.
But that does not do much justice to the shabby presentation of information on the whole site, which is a frightening basic installation of Joomla - a free downloadable piece of content-management-system
Which beggars the questions:
- Is Mr. Robert being paid for this website ? If then, how much ?
And in that case, whoever is monitoring this project is a complete mediocre and should be quite simply be tossed out, or off all Internet web-platform deployment projects.
A quick google search reveals that the Robert's parent company FixPoint Attractions is a one-man "show charging 40 Euros / hour from Slovakia ?
Oh Lord!
