#icebucketchallenge: popular Nigerian artists take part in the ice bucket challenge (must see photos )

Nigerian celebrities picked up the baton of the ALS Ice Bucket Challenge from mostly American celebrities and got themselves wet for charity. Actress Genevieve Nnaji has already took part in this challenge. Now it’s turn of Ice Prince, Davido, Emmanuel Adebayor, Peter of Psquare, Iyanya and more to douse themselves with ice water. The Ice Bucket Challenge started as a small idea to raise money for charity, has now gone viral online. Everyone from David Beckham to the founder of Facebook, Mark Zuckerberg, the former U.S. president, George Bush, and the founder of Microsoft Corporation, Bill Gates, have done it. The ALS (amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, a form of motor neurone disease) Association ‘created’ the challenge that dares nominated participants to be filmed having a bucket of ice water poured on their heads. The participant also nominates two or three further people to undertake the challenge within 24 hours. Those who forfeit the challenge must donate a larger sum of money to a good cause. But braving freezing water is not enough, a small donation is also expected and so far #icebucketchallenge has raised more than $22.9 million for charity.
