Asejere, an indigenous tabloid in Yoruba language has hit the newsstands
The publication according to the publishers will focus on connecting and promoting commerce and entrepreneurs among the people in the south-west region of the country.
The acting Editor of the newspaper, Ms. Sinmisola Ajadi said the newspaper will be an addition to the indigenous language newspaper market and will promote economic ingenuity of the Yoruba people.
“We want to educate the Yoruba people anywhere they may be all over the world, especially those who are in the bracket of the informal sector; tradesmen, artisans, market men and women, workers, employed, unemployed on how they can better do their business and ply their trade, while also showcasing the people that formulate the policies that have impact directly or indirectly on their business and trade.
“Not only that, this publication will also seek to give a boost to Yoruba Language promotion especially in our public life. It will also help to avoid the prediction of UNICEF that by 2025 a lot of indigenous languages would have gone to extinction,” the editor stated.
