'Nigeria' - A Reality Show On HiTV

HITV Offers N10M to Patriotic Nigerian 

If you are not one of many of us Nigerians who can barely recite the national pledge talk less of the national anthem, then it is your time to win yourself some money for being a little bit more, patriotic.

The most successful satellite Television to have come out of Nigeria, HITV has placed on offer a N10 Million prize for the winner of the forthcoming Nigeria Reality Show, a brainchild of the Satellite Television.

The reality show is the first of its kind in that it is out solely to promote the nigerian identity. How? You may want to ask?

The show would consist of 18 contestants (three each from the six geopolitical zones) to be called 'neighbors' who would be required  to live in a house, to be called Nigeria for a period of eight weeks.

The 'Neighbors' would be engaged in weekly tasks individually, however, inter-tribal solidarity (as they call it) is allowed. The winner of each weekly task shall be President of 'Nigeria' for that week.

As usual, the fate of the neighbors have been left in the hands of the audience who are to be called the Supreme Council for the purpose of the show. The Supreme Council would exercise their authority through weekly votes through SMS to determine who is evicted.

The Supreme Council would also be given the opportunity to either bash or praise the neighbors in the village square to be called 'hot seat. How they would achieve that, we shall wait and see.

Furthermore, the Neighbors on admission into Nigeria, would be given
"3 lifelines; 2 green balls and a white ball. The 3 balls allow a Neighbor to either call a friend or a relative, outside the house for help, when tasks become difficult."

I guess you can now see it's a first of its kind.

However, for those of you whose eyes and ears are already bulging having heard the prize money and would want to give it a shot here are some tips.

First, you must be a Nigerian within the age grade of 25-40 and you must have a minimum of HND education. You must also be intelligent because they would test you in English, Cultural, Social, and Current affairs at the Zonal screenings. Then, you must be an indigene of the zone you intend representing and must be 'Proudly Nigerian in fashion sense'.

Apart from those, you must be able to speak at least one other Nigerian language fluently, apart from his Mother Tongue and English. One more thing, you must be rich in the socio-cultural ethos of the tribe you claim and be willing to learn and integrate other cultures and languages.

You can register online. Don't worry you do not have to pay for that, it's free. Zonal screenings will be held in Ibadan, Port-Harcourt, Abuja, Bauchi, Kaduna, and Enugu.

In addition to the N10 Million cash prize, the winner would be tagged THE NIGERIAN, 2008 and would represent Nigeria at notable world festivals of culture and tourism.

So, what are you waiting for? Go register online and be sure to have all other requirements and then pray to get a chance to contest for N10 Million.
