Primetime Reporters is set to commemorate a decade of excellence in journalism on Wednesday, December 4, 2024. The celebration, themed *”Leveraging Technology to Maximize the Potential of Nigeria’s Blue Economy,”* will feature an annual lecture and awards ceremony honoring deserving Nigerians who have made significant contributions to various sectors.
The event will take place at the Welcome Centre and Hotels, located along Airport Road, Ikeja, Lagos, starting at 10:00 AM. Dignitaries, including ministers, government officials, industry leaders, and media practitioners, are expected to attend.
Celebrating Resilience and Growth
Reflecting on the platform’s journey, Managing Director and Editor-in-Chief, Saint Augustine Nwadinamuo, popularly known as *Odogwu n’epe mpe,* highlighted the resilience and perseverance that have defined *Primetime Reporters* since its inception in 2014.
“When we started, many clients struggled to transition to online platforms, preferring hard copies,” Nwadinamuo shared. “Despite losing some clients initially, we persevered. Today, online news is the norm, and *Primetime Reporters* has emerged as a trusted voice for accurate and timely news.”
He emphasized the significance of the milestone, noting that many startups fail within their first three to five years. “Here we are, celebrating ten successful years. It’s truly a testament to our commitment and impact.”
Driving Policy and Shaping the Future
Over the past decade, *Primetime Reporters* has hosted impactful lecture series addressing critical issues in Nigeria’s economy. Past themes have included the maritime sector, the ease of doing business, and the African Continental Free Trade Area (AfCFTA).
