Kwara North news portal is the independent voice of the people and places of Kwara North — a focused newsroom rooted in community reporting, clear analysis and constructive accountability. We cover the towns, markets, farms and institutions that shape daily life across the zone, bringing local stories into sharper national view and giving residents reliable information they can act on.
Our situation
We are a lean, locally based newsroom made up of reporters, editors and contributors who live in or regularly travel to the communities we cover. Working with limited but growing resources, we prioritise fast, factual reporting and practical journalism: service stories about schools, health, agriculture and infrastructure; investigative pieces that hold public actors to account; and human-centred features that document everyday life. We publish timely online editions and social updates designed for local audiences and the broader Nigerian public interested in the region.
The landscape we cover
Kwara North’s landscape is diverse — small towns and villages, active markets, agricultural enterprises and evolving civic life. Key beats for our audience include:
- Local governance and politics: council decisions, election coverage and public policy that affect livelihoods.
- Agriculture and agribusiness: smallholder concerns, market prices, extension services and innovations in poultry, crop and livestock production.
- Education and health: school performance, access to clinics and public health initiatives.
- Security and community resilience: incidents, responses and community-driven solutions.
- Business and economy: trade, entrepreneurship and opportunities for investment.
- Culture and society: traditions, local voices, and community events.
Opportunity & impact
Kwara North exists to close information gaps. We give visibility to under-reported issues and create space for solutions — connecting farmers to markets, citizens to public officials, and local entrepreneurs to customers. For advertisers and partners, we offer direct access to an engaged local audience and practical channels for community outreach. For civil society and government actors, our reporting provides constructive feedback and public scrutiny.
Our standards
We are committed to accuracy, fairness and transparency. Our journalism is evidence-based, attribution-focused and respectful of diverse perspectives. Corrections and clarifications are published promptly when needed.
