Launched in May 2012, Nigerian Watch, a free monthly newspaper for the Nigerian community in the UK, will be published twice a month as of 31 January.
Currently Nigerian Watch is published the last Friday of every month delivering exclusive news to the Nigerian diaspora in the UK. Over time, the paper became so popular that its management decided to double its print run (50,000). The paper will continue to be distributed at numerous outlets across the UK.
“This year will be packed with activities to mark Nigeria’s 100th year of existence as a united nation with numerous organisations, bodies, agencies and the government celebrating the 1914 amalgamation. To do justice to the event, we are having to increase frequency to ensure that our readers are adequately informed in a timely manner,” says Maryanne Jemide.
Apart from the printed edition. Nigerian Watch has a web presence.
