About Africa News Watch
Africa News Watch is a digital news platform with unmatched interest in Africa and its people.
Using multi-media tools, we love to tell authentic African stories as they break within the continent or beyond, and through incisive reviews and analysis, help the reader make sense of the direction of policy and governance.
We never miss out on the fierce, and sometimes dirty, competition for political space but yet chronicle Africa’s rapidly expanding productive capacity and venture opportunities.
We feel the vibes of the continent’s rich deposit of young persons and follow the glitz and glamour of their rise to wealth, fame and influence.
We are independent, constantly in search of facts and the truth. We tell it!
Mission:
To tell Africa’s story as it is.
Vision:
To be the lead media platform influencing the narrative on Africa
Our Team:
We harness the power of diversity. We are passionate. We work for each other. We are the ANW Tribe!
