    Can anyone tell me why there is a pyramid on the NS logo that looks like the one in Giza? I have been writing here for almost two years and I still don’t get it… :-)

The golden pyramid represents the lush color of the Nigerian savanna, and is in the shape of groundnut heaps, historically one of the best product/export of Northern Nigeria. The green palm represents the fertile rain forest in the south and another major cash crop of the country. The vision of NS is to use our stories to enrich the lives of diverse Nigerians and also use them to export a rounded culture/perspective of the country to the rest of the wider world.

Everything is carefully planned, thought out and executed. Yeah.

@Admin

Thanks for the explanation of the logo but I’m beginning to wonder, do the groundnut pyramids still exist? I thought they no longer existed due to economic focus on other natural resources.

I’m also wondering whether the icons are good enough representations of this site and group. It seems we do a lot more if not different than our logo says.

@Afronuts…

You yarn well. The logo looks ‘old-schoolish’ and shows no direct relation to what we’re about…I think we could be better represented. Just ‘our’ thoughts.

What does @Admin think?

Thanks @Afronuts @Seun-Odukoya the logo works OK for our current purposes and our focus right now is not to change it but to continue to build the brand. In a few years time when the vision NS is more fully realized, we may revisit it. Thanks for your input.
