FAQS

It should be in Word format and not powerpoint and sent via email to competition@konnectafrica.net

3. Can we write about posthumous stars?
Yes you can!
4. Can we write about ourselves?

As many as possible! No limits!
6. Can we send in entries without pictures?
Sure you can; pictures would be preferable but we understand that you may not have access to the pictures you need in some cases.
7. How do we know those we can’t write about?
You are only exempted from writing about those individuals who have already been featured on the konnectafrica.net site. You can scroll through our Stars in Africa column or Interview section to discover those we have featured.

Can we write on people that are already famous\ not so famous? and do we have to write on people we’ve met? Can we write on those that have featured on other blogs?
Hi Bella,
Good question. You can write on anybody. It doesn’t matter whether they are famous or not so famous. For us, the only condition is that you don’t write about someone we have already featured on http://www.konnectafrica.net.
Who inspires you? Whose life has challenged you? Which personality is impacting the lives of Nigerians around you? Write about that person.
Wishing you all the best. Cheers.
