- Description:
- The thesis of this paper is that meaningful and lasting development can only be based on the mobilisation of our people for effective transformation of the developmental process. However, the continuing search by Nigeria since independence for more dynamic, efficient and relevant strategies of achieving real development does imply frustration with past attempts as well as our inability to maximally and positively exploit these resources for the upliftment and well-being of the Nigerian people. This has resulted in the marginalisation of the vast majority of the people in the transformation process, particularly because of the low level of their education and, therefore, low consciousness which not only made them vulnerable to fraudulent manipulations by politicians, but has created among them a culture of helplessness, apathy and indifference about the happenings in the political and economic process.

- Description:
- This paper directs its attention on information campaign effectiveness. It examines some theoretical and practical considerations that should be taken into account in planning and executing public englightenment campaigns in Nigeria and other developing countries and offers a multimedia model for more effective information campaigns in these areas. According to the model, well prepared and packaged information campaign messages should flow from the information campaign headquarters to the mass media and the interpersonal and group communication channels, and through these channels to the target audiences with continual monitoring and evaluation by campaign officials. The suggested model is diagramatically provided.
