(from press release) MTV Networks Africa and mobile phone service provider MTN are in partnership to deliver an 8-part TV series that creates a dialogue between young people and the political, business and cultural leaders who shape the world today. The intimate documentary series will allow a panel – young people representing assembled from Cameroon, Ghana, Liberia, Nigeria, Zimbabwe, Rwanda, South Africa and Uganda, among others - to put probing questions to influential, inspirational and sometimes controversial individuals.
Among the eminent people who will feature in the series are: Liberian President Madame Ellen Johnson-Sirleaf (Africa’s first and only elected female head of state), Mr Paul Kagame, President of Rwanda and South African politician Mr Julius Malema (President of the ANC Youth League) and many African leaders or influencers who exercise a significant impact on the continent.
Viewers are encouraged to nominate influencers and submit their proposed questions for the programme via a dedicated MTV base Meets…with MTN website or via their mobile handsets.
Registration is now open here and here.
