REQUEST FOR VOLUNTEER COMMUNITY REPORTERS.
Akoko Edo Community Newspaper ( www.akokoedonewspaper.com.ng) is an online medium established to promote citizen journalism in a local government area that has suffered neglect from mainstream newspapers.
Our mission is to highlight community challenges and achievements and to showcase ordinary people who are doing extraordinary things.
To achieve this objective we desire to rely largely on stories told by the people themselves. We do not have the resources to provide coverage for the entire local government area, yet every Community is as important as the other to our editorial mission.
In this regard we request interested persons to offer their services as citizen journalists for their respective communities.
Interested persons do not need to have been trained as a journalist. All we require of aspirants are news items that are well written in simple and understandable English language.
We will also publish clear pictures of individual and community events that are well captioned and forwarded to us. Call or private chat us on 08033085413 or email us at akokoedonewspaper@gmail.com to indicate interest in this strategic partnership.
