Background

Michael Osayande Olojo-Kosoko said that growing up in Nigeria, he had been exposed to the vibrant rhythms of African life, but he had also witnessed firsthand the limited opportunities available to aspiring journalists. He stated that the media landscape, though dynamic, often struggled with infrastructure and resource challenges, but despite these obstacles, his passion for storytelling and sharing impactful news had intensified. He claimed that, driven by curiosity and ambition, he began exploring ways to bridge the gap between the availability of information and the desire for quality content. This quest, he said, led him to leverage his mobile phone as the most accessible tool. He recounted that he started sharing news and updates on WhatsApp, gradually building a loyal following among friends and contacts, and that word-of-mouth endorsements helped expand his audience. He noted that he became a reliable source for those seeking timely and accurate information. Michael stated that this initial success sparked a realization that the power of journalism lies not only in conveying information but also in shaping perspectives and sparking meaningful conversations. He said he envisioned a platform transcending geographical and socio-economic boundaries, providing a voice for underrepresented communities. He announced that on September 9th, 2023, he founded "Miandey Bulletin," a news media company dedicated to filling gaps in Nigeria's media landscape. With limited resources but unwavering determination, they rapidly gained traction, fueled by innovative storytelling, in-depth analysis, and commitment to fact-checking and accuracy. He reported that Miandey Bulletin amassed an impressive following of over 2000 enthusiasts within a short period. He added that encouraged by this success, he launched his solo journalism profile, @iamkosoko, exploring diverse disciplines. Michael said that through @iamkosoko, he discovered a deeper passion for storytelling, shedding light on untold stories, and sparking meaningful conversations.
