The journey of a million miles begins with a step, so goes the adage. The project, OyoReporters, starts with the first step today. It is a journey to the future. It is a long journey, longer than a million steps. The journey, definitely, will not be up to a million years but, certainly, it promises to be a long and engaging adventure.
The adventure is a hopeful one, because we have come fully prepared and resolute that we must make a success of it. Ours is a media engagement that promises to serve humanity, first and foremost, in Oyo State, and by extension, those who may be interested in the totality of life and all engagements in the pacesetters state.
At OyoReporters, we are a team of research-oriented, thoroughbred journalists guided by standards and ethics of the profession as well as in-depth knowledge of Oyo State, our coverage area.
Before us, others have forayed the land and engaged the residents, yet, events have made it evident that there is a missing link. The missing link is the thorough media engagement of the people of the state, their heritage, and the whole essence of their existence. We are here to open the ‘new page’ in the book of its journey to true statehood. So, we are proud to start a journey in the new chapter that is about to begin to unfold in the life of Oyo State.
You are curious about who we are? We are proud to say that OyoReporters is the necessary partner in the renewed journey to the greatness of Oyo State. We have come to fill the void as the mouthpiece of the people and the voice of the voiceless. We promise to engage the public in a way that they would see the need to participate, as key stakeholders, in the development of their common patrimony. We would also awake in them the courage to challenge the statusquo that is increasingly characterised by injustices that are, daily, rocking the boat of progress.
We have come to ascert our position as an important entity in the fourth estate of the realm for your own good and in your best interest. We assure you that in the future that is coming tomorrow, you shall feel compelled to identify with us as your own brand and your worthy ambassador.
From now henceforth, we shall be serving you and the outside world with rich information on everyday living in Oyo State from news to politics or governance, economy to culture and entertainment, health, legal issues to sports, agriculture to tourism; education and more.
We are here to comb Oyo State in a way that the weak shall discover their strength; in a way that the betrayers shall bury their heads in ashes of shame; in a way that the true and loyal servants of the state shall govern with reference to the sanctity of life and for the common good of all. Yes, we can; let’s do it together.
We can set the pace together for a wonderful experience. We cannot do it without you. Reach out to us on happenings around you by calling us. Follow us on Twitter; reach us on Instagram and like us on Facebook
