大象传媒

A recently launched mobile radio service for Nigerians allows listeners to listen live to the 大象传媒 World Service and 大象传媒 Hausa on their mobile phones. For many residents who do not have access to internet resources, it is a welcome innovation. But for others, it is too expensive. Steve Martin, the 大象传媒 World Service regional business development manager who helped to introduce the service, speaks to university student Mustapha Saeed and discusses whether the costs may deter some listeners.

The 大象传媒 Kinyarwanda radio station continues to be silenced after the Rwandan government disputed the assertions of a 大象传媒 television documentary on the 1994 genocide. Members of its audience lament the service which was they saw as a vital source of reliable news broadcasting. Plus, listeners in South Africa praise how a recent episode of The Conversation shed light on the blossoming arts and culture of their country.
