Applications are open for the Legit.ng Big Naija Independence Contest 2020. Legit.ng gives young people a unique chance to tell their own stories of the Nigerian Independence. The Big Naija Independence Contest by Legit.ng is aimed at spotting young talented students passionate about journalism. It is a great opportunity for you to get your story heard!
Students can participate in the Big Naija Independence contest by writing the essay on one of three categories:
- Your personal contribution: A true story on how you personally help your country to grow. It can be on your education, achievements or any other deeds that, in your opinion, help to improve the lives of Nigerian citizens, the atmosphere in your community or country in general. Please, show how your report improves the wider situation, not just your own experiences.
- Lessons learned since 1960: An article on an event that had a major impact in the social, economic, cultural or any other important spheres in Nigerian society. You can consider both positive and negative aspects of it, but make sure it is related to present times. Try using a retrospective approach for showing how it can help in perspective.
- Role of Women: As the role of women has been underestimated for quite long, it is time to uncover how women helped to build independence in Nigeria during these 60 years. Give an example of women’s achievements and their unique influence on Big Naija Independence.
