WELCOME!!!!!

On several occasions i’ve been asked rhetorically;”Aren’t newspapers dying?Isn’t print media becoming obsolete?”It does seem obvious to anyone who has been paying attention that print media is declining and poised to one day go away completely;but maybe it only seems that way.To be sure,the printed newspaper is no longer the only game in town and e-books are on the rise.We now have a number of ways to get news and information in ways both free and convenient.

It is apposite I begin this editorial by affirming that at a time such as this when the entire countries in the continent of Africa seems to be on fire;when citizens have started doubting whether the much talked about Africa’s glorious dawn would never arrive,when foreign investors are now raising open questions as regards whether there exists any wisdom in investing in Africa and in an age when the scholars of skepticism within the ivory towers are unanimous in their reference to the african countries as failed states,the importance and existence of an organisation such as ours cannot be over-emphasised.

The general outlook of the African countries today calls for concern indeed!From Libya in North Africa to Mozambique in the South;from Cameroon in the Central Africa to Kenya and Sudan in East Africa down to Nigeria,Chad Republic and Niger Republic in the western region of Africa,the spectre of political violence,economic mess,class intimidation,youth restlessness which is largely due to high rate of unemployment,religion uprising,health challenges such as high death maternity rate,diseases,and above all,terrorism are too conspicuous for any well meaning citizens of Africa to ignore.

As if to make matters worse,many of the prints and online media that are supposed to play a serious role in finding a swift and amicable solution to this entire impasse are busy formulating policies that would only swell their personal purse.Such organisations are only good at sensationalising their headlines and falsifying news while they failed to proffer concrete and solid way forward to them.This is why it becomes heartwarming to realise that a blog such as this is rising up at this time to fill these obvious vacuums.

In the midst of this change,I introduce mydailyspot Blog as a vehicle to serve the people of Africa.My daily spot was created with the intention of bridging the gap in our diversity,to be a place where and i,can freely talk about anything and everything*wink,wink*.This is a blog that will be an independent publication with a social and charitable mission.Numerous online blogs are growing in the country today.Thats right,growing in both volume and readership at a time when the overall industry is declining.I believe this to be indicative of the value of this independent ,social enterprise model.I shall promote public peace and  security and I shall ensure that there exists cordial,harmonious and peaceful relationship among various communities in Nigeria in particular,and that  such peaceful co existence also exists among various countries in Africa (atleast to the best of my ability) .My goal for  doing this is to make Nigeria or any Africa a safe heaven where terrorism will become a thing of the past;where poverty will be eradicated to the barest minimum,where Nigeria or any African citizen will not be compelled to take up arms against the state simply because their home governments refuse to accede to their demands of good living ,where the high rate of unemployment will be sentenced into  an eternal confinement,where high death maternity rate and other health challenges that are assailing the African continent will be thrown into the bin of history and where foreign investors will not have to hesitate or think twice before embarking on economic voyage to Africa.

This is my inaugural issue.Walk with me each day as I learn,grow,and evolve into a publication that adds value to  Africa’s existing landscape of great publications while helping its citizens,our most valuable resource to thrive.
