Ondostate.gov.ng: A review from Grandiose Parlor.

It is high time the governor reviewed his media strategy,
particularly how the state website is used to augment his efforts and showcase the state. The world is now a global village thanks to technology and a dynamic media that has gone digital. If the Mimiko administration wants to reverse the existing impression of state as a sleepy backwater rural settlement to that of a great business or tourist destination, then it must jump on the World Wide Web.


The full review, can be found over at Grandiose Parlor here.

The more pertinent question, however, ultimately remains whether there are any specifics, that can indeed be marketed ?

And should government at any level be about marketing at all ? 

Also, the idea that tourism has a place in or around somewhere where people die of road accidents and blame random, non-existent evil spirits ( see Akure Road Carnage - Tribune Report ) seems totally misplaced.

And businesses will thrive, and be meaningful only when the local economy is so empowered, and supported to become dynamic, self supporting and ambitious as to lead its way.

Notwithstanding, the use, under-use, and misuse of the ondo state official website as pointed out is right on the money.
