Today, I officially accepted my appointment as IT columnist for Africa’s leading IT and Telecoms news website, ITNewsAfrica.com.

The announcement was published on the site since September 19 after a selection process that appointed two other industry experts, namely, David Paulding and Suzanne Olivier.

ITNewsAfrica.com is an independent media portal fully dedicated to ICT affairs with an original business model, based on five elements (corporate sponsoring, press offices, advertising, events, and content syndication). ITNewsAfrica.com aggregates technology and telecoms news relevant to Africa’s development.

The Online Editor for ITNewsAfrica.com, Samuel Mungadze, said the appointment of the three will go a long way in achieving the company’s objectives of changing perceptions and exposing opportunities.

“We are honored to have a team of experts contributing to our publication. This is a definite sign of good things to come from us,” said Mungadze.

I’ll be publishing news and reviews of Nigeria’s telecoms/mobile 2.0 applications as well as the Web 2.0 market as it relates to Africa. I am highly honored to be recognized by ITNewsAfrica.com as Nigeria’s Web 2.0 Industry Expert.
