arrant non sense, av always known fela to be an attention seeker, but i never knew u could go this far, what is the essence of this exactly, if u are looking for places to paint, mushin is not the right place to go to, mushin is not a slum, what heroes are u looking for? after painting what next? mushin as u are trying to paint it is not like that at all and to me its really a bad impression u are creating. this is an aimless and senseless mission to embark upon. go do something worthwhile with the youths there, not by painting 7 streets and raking in millions of naira into ur pockets.

I attended one of FD's talks several years ago and he continues to inspire with this event. All the best to those taking part and may this be just one of many good things to come.

@ anon, it might look like bunch of nonsense but it's still something. This little things will one day turn to something big. I don't know this guy, but I think what he's doing is a great idea. Nigerians can't wait for the government anymore, we individuals can start doing something, and start from little. Why don't we support people who are actually trying to do something positive, instead of bashing them.

I agree with anonymous (1). The guy is a chronic attention seeker. God forgive me for being critical, but I have to be honest.
