In Nigerian Journalism and the Digital Age, Adeyanju Apejoye, Andrew Danjuma Dewan, and Seamus Simpson explore the extent to which a globally accessible online communication environment may be poised to provide the conditions for Nigeria to adopt, strategically, elements of 21st-century online mass communication with the potential for significant political and social development.
Through critical exposition of the history and character of Nigeria’s journey to the digital age the authors demonstrate how provision and consumption of both traditional and digital news have emerged and evolved as a topic of interest within decades of significant change within the Nigerian news media system. Underpinning the volume’s analysis is the core contention that the most productive, innovative, and effective media systems are those that position accountability to the public interest as a crucial factor in the functioning of news production and consumption. Apejoye, Dewan, and Simpson’s volume constitutes a significant contribution to understanding the Nigerian news media environment in the era of expanding digital information networks and services.

Adeyanju Apejoye is Senior Lecturer and Head of the Department of Mass Communication, Plateau State University, Bokkos, Nigeria. AndrewDanjumaDewan is Associate Professor at the Department of Mass Communication, Plateau State University, Bokkos, Nigeria. Seamus Simpson is Professor of Media Policy in the School of Arts, Media and Creative Technology at the University of Salford, UK.
