An 8-page in-house e-magazine and newsletter, ‘Cultural Renaissance’ will make its debut on June 3rd. Published by the Ministry of Art, Culture and Creative Economy, under the supervision of the National Institute for Cultural Orientation (NICO), a parastatal in the ministry, the publication will be out every fourth night.
It is instructive to note that the maiden edition of the publication coincides with the first anniversary of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s administration.
The magazine, which has as its Editor-in-Chief, Otunba Biodun Ajiboye, the Executive Secretary and CEO of NICO, and Caleb Nor as Editor, boasts of tested hands in journalism that include Abimbola Tooki, Olusegun Oruame, Ade Majek Odunowo (Graphics) Ekundayo Asaju, Adedayo Sowemimo and Ozolua Uhakheme as editorial advisers.
The thrust of the publication is among others, to serve the audience reports that will expose our esteemed readers to the nuances and values of Nigeria’s diverse cultures through incisive reportage of events and activities in the sector.
The sector reasoned that “we, in the culture sector should write our narrative by ourselves at this time. We need to promote and present our culture to the world; we must have adequate reportage of the industry as robust as it is”.
“The culture and creative sector can now buttress its prime intent of redirecting the defective and mistaken orientational understanding of culture by the general public. This magazine is intended to be the voice for the culture sector which is expected to cover the totality of cultural news reports and information throughout the country”, added the Executive Secretary of NICO.
