Wow...you really did your thang on that one. I enjoyed it thoroughly. I would say the production rivals most other shows in the west, so congratulations to all involved. Loved it!!!

you did a great job :) as far as feedback goes, it'd be even better if you could slow it down a little bit so it doesn't sound rushed or rehearsed. other than that, the camera loves you!

Good effort. Slightly disconnected from your subjects based on your comment of "begging for alms is uncool". It seems an insenstitive assessment without any substantial invenstigation of the root causes based on the environment or economical climate. I do love the effort though....

@ bola, thanks a lot.. yah they are obviously trying to set a new standard for naija programming.
@anon1, awww gracias mami, glad to know. so would that be LA los angeles or LA louisiana? you managed to spark my curiosity.hmmm
@anon2, ooooo boy do I wish it was rehearsed, maybe I would have been talking up more of a storm, lol. You have your notes and you run with it.
@anon3, I feel you, maybe I should have emphasized more on why it is uncool and what I think needs to be done. but honestly, that is a series not even a show on its own.lol. Wasnt trying to be insensitive and I am equally frustrated with the socioeconomic state of NIG but like I said to anon2 a lot of it was improvised.

@ bee. I wasnt trying to be insensitive. I don't think you have to experience to somewhat understand. I know your parents probably did what they had to do to make sure you and your sibs were ok.
Maybe I see things from inside my little box but I stil believe no matter how poor I am, I will never put my kids on the streets to beg for alms. and like you said as hard as things were for you, our parents did what they had to do to give you a better life. The issue obviously goes deeper than the kids being on the streets, we have the govt, we hve family planning, we have education, and a whole lot of other factors. Im sorry if you feel I was insensitive but honey, I still stand by my word that those kids do not need to be on the streets.
@inmyhead..thanx mami..
