Currently the printed edition of Nigerian Watch is published the last Friday of every month delivering exclusive news to the Nigerian diaspora in the UK. Over time, the paper became so popular that its management decided to double its print run (50,000). The paper will continue to be distributed at numerous outlets across the UK.
"This year will be packed with activities to mark Nigeria's 100th year of existence as a united nation with numerous organisations, bodies, agencies and the government celebrating the 1914 amalgamation. To do justice to the event, we are having to increase frequency to ensure that our readers are adequately informed in a timely manner," says Maryanne Jemide, Nigerian Watch's managing director (pictured). "We run out of copies before the end of every month. To satisfy this increasing demand for the publication, we have decided to increase frequency."
According to its own information, Nigerian Watch has established itself as the largest ethnic minority newspaper in the UK. It also has a web presence: www.nigerianwatch.com
