To prove my point, please read my open letter to President YarAdua on the need for using .ng for ALL government websites' domains. The letter was posted on "OnlineNigeria.com" and you can read the same letter at www.KebbiState.com, under the Topic "Nigeria" tittled "Standardizing Nigerian States Official Internet Domain Names." If you google search the title of the article, you will also be able to find and read that informative article. It is a "must-read" for anyone who is interested in seeing Nigeria take a lead (at least in Africa) in today's information age. I agree completely with everything stated here-in, plus some.
