[kictanet] Start-up Attention Shifting from Kenya to Nigeria?

[Ali Hussein]

What's missing in that story which I think is important is the story of Demo Africa being hosted in Nigeria this year.

Critical  in that is the open arms that the demo team were received with by the highest levels of the Nigerian government in the ICT Sector. 

http://www.cio.co.ke/news/top-stories/demo-africa-2014-set-for-nigeria-in-september.

We have always been masters of the hype which has its value in the scheme of things. Now we are loosing the hype to Nigeria and Rwanda. Maybe it's not such a bad thing so that we can move beyond the hype and start doing.
