[George Nyabuga]

Dear Listers,


Safaricom, a Kenyan mobile service provider initiated an inter-university
competition for university students pursuing journalism as their future
career. The initiative required Journalism students from the different
universities to form groups of a maximum of 5 individuals and come up with
a Video advert that would promote the Safaricom online customer care
services. Some of the Universities participating in the competition
include our very own, The University of Nairobi, Daystar University,
Kenyatta University, USIU among others.

Out of a total number of 42 groups competing for the top slots, the
University of Nairobi emerged among the top ten. A group of five students,
SAFARIZ aka BIG 5, from the University of Nairobi –School of Journalism
were honored to have their video selected to get to the next stage of the
competition. The group that consists of two men and 3 ladies- Eric
Ndun’gu, Collins Kemboi, Yvonne Ogwang’, Maimuna Chuba and Joy Wahome, all
2nd Year students of the School of Journalism  were the brains behind the
idea and comprised the cast  aided by some of their colleagues.

In this second part of the competition, the group that gets the highest
number of views of their video emerges victorious .The students from the
School of Journalism request for your support by viewing their video on
