A refreshingly new
newspaper, www.daylight.ng, has joined the league of reputable online
publications in Nigeria amid plaudits and excitement.
Daylight, in the
words of its cerebral founder and publisher Azuh Amatus, is a highly focused, vocal,
reliable, impartial and agenda setting daily online newspaper with a difference.
Shedding more
light, Azuh, a former Society Editor of The Sun Newspapers and the immediate
past Editor of Entertainment Express and Sunday Express Newspapers, stated that
Daylight would change the face of Nigerian journalism online and help usher in
a new era for genuine practitioners.
Azuh, who also
pioneered and handled The Sun’s Showbiz Desk for six years, is one of the
youngest members of the revered Nigerian Guild of Editors (NGE).
He equally doubles
as the Editor-in-Chief of the online portal whose slogan, is: “Eyes of the
nation.”
In a recent chat, Azuh
disclosed that the passion to explore and conquer virgin frontiers in the new
media gave birth to Daylight.
“Having put in almost
two decades of my professional career in the traditional media, I have finally
decided to explore new opportunities by setting up a serious online newspaper
Nigerians and indeed, the world will reckon with on a daily basis.
Our
vision is to be a leading and revered online media supplier of reliable
newsworthy contents that will be beneficial to all, irrespective of ethnicity,
religion or social status, through excellent and quality delivery of our
services.”
Elaborating more on
his latest initiative, Azuh stated that Daylight is a name he came across while
reading his Bible and immediately fell in love with it.
“We are a daily
newspaper that reports general news ranging from politics to business,
entertainment, crime, sports, opinion, health, relationship, fashion/lifestyle
and anything under daylight. We also conduct high profile interviews with
eminent Nigerians and celebrities.
This is the reason
we pride ourselves as the ‘eyes of the nation’.
In fact, as the ‘eyes
of the nation’, we will always ensure that we give Nigerians within and outside
our shores the news as it breaks in very balanced, reliable and impartial
reportorial on a daily basis. We want readers and advertisers to see us as
their most reliable online newspaper and media partner.
Again, advertisers
can always count on us to effectively and efficiently help advertise and
promote their goods and services online based on our wide reach,” hinted Azuh,
the multiple award-winning journalist and media consultant from Azia, Ihiala
LGA of Anambra State.
Youthful and widely
travelled Azuh who holds a first and master’s degrees in Mass Communication and
Communication Studies from the Lagos State University, said Daylight and its
sister publication, Showbizplusng, which are being jointly published by
Contacts Communications Incorporated, are already operating from Omole, Ojodu-Ikeja,
Lagos State, where its corporate head office is located.
Azuh called on
Nigerians to embrace and support the new online publication.
He further assured them
that Daylight would never fail in its professional duty of balanced and
impartial news dissemination, especially to its teeming/loyal readers and
advertisers.
Meanwhile, Daylight
is expected to be formally launched at an elaborate ceremony soon.
“We will definitely
inform the general public on the actual date, venue and other details once we
conclude all arrangements.” Azuh concluded.
