Citizen Journalism is journalism of the people, by the people, and for the people. It is the kind of journalism that demystifies the practice of journalism, and makes it an all-comers affair. It is that kind of journalism that tends to make everybody the Source and the Receiver; the Encoder and the Decoder at the same time. It is that kind of journalism practice that purports to include everybody. No wonder Bowman and Willis (2003) call it We Media.

In Africa, how to achieve improved governance has remained a mirage. The consequence is that the people are weighed down by poverty, diseases and all manner of deprivations.The picture is gloomy but many believe that it is not for lack of policies to change the situation but more for the failure of leadership across the continent.
At present, optimists are unanimous that to overcome the hurdle, the people need to get involved in their affairs. The development has provoked the need for more interaction among those in government and their subjects. With the evolution of Information and Communication Technology (ICT), efforts are increasingly being made on how to bridge the gap. Already, the adoption of ICT has brought about a revolution and transformation in how people interact, live, earn a living etc.
