KEY OBJECTIVES
Extrasportnigeria was not primarily set up to be the best in the industry by those regular measurements but we desire to give everyone a platform to read Nigerian sports and indeed Nigerian news reports the way they ought to be written. In the pursuit of this noble goal, we have organized a workforce that stops at nothing to give the “Why” behind the “Why” in any story.
OUR EDGE
Our newsroom is not so huge, not as huge as you imagine, but the mix of the young, the exposed, and experienced writers with their sights set constantly on integrity has made the team what any credible manager would desire.
Extrasportnigeria was born to serve as a platform for every athlete with a story to tell; for every team competing with their hearts out. It has grown beyond that in the ecosystem as our reach to every other news in Nigeria, Africa, and of course worldwide has added up to making us a platform without boundaries.
COMMUNITY RELATIONSHIPS
Our brand of journalism has impacted society so much in such a short time. We want to become one of the best platforms for news breaks, in-depth analysis, insights, and storytelling in Nigeria.
OUR BIG FAMILY
At Extrasportnigeria.com, we consider our readers and partners first in every step of the journey because we know that our success is based on your patronage. We are thankful for your trust thus far, and we ask once more that you continue to ride with us and be sure that we will fulfill our part of the deal.
