MXit users throughout Africa will be able to send Barack Obama a message via MXit. Simply compete the questionnaire found at MXit’s Tradepost entering your name, city, country and comment. Barack Obama will then receive your MXit message. This will only be available for 24 hours starting at 6pm (GMT +2).

This initiative is a collaboration between MXit and the American Embassy to promote the Obama visit from the 10th to the 11 July to Ghana. Contact Obama? Yes we can.
