Ezenwoko’s Blog At Five: A Newspaper That Redefined News Reportage

When starting off a niche in an industry that many are not used to, you are not expected to surmount the challenges before you.

But Ezenwoko’s Blog, by providing quality journalism, had defied the odds, broke boundaries, pulled down walls, and divided oceans since its launch exactly five years ago.

In an industry saturated with sensational sites, clickbait giants, fake news merchants, religious/ethnic promoters, and pro/anti-government platforms, Ezenwoko’s Blog, founded in 2016, has stood out as a credible go-to news source for every southerner, northerner, Christian, Muslim, Pagan, anti-government/pro-government individual, secessionist, and its growing global audience.

Hard work, grit, skilled journalists, and management with a keen eye for excellence, have set Ezenwoko’s Blog apart from the rest as it keeps building a unique audience.

With an average of seven million monthly views, this online newspaper must be hitting the right buttons and telling the right stories Nigerians and foreign nationals want to read.
