A new digital media platform, Ogun 360, founded by Machado Dolapo, has been officially launched in Ogun State with a commitment to providing credible information, amplifying local voices and showcasing the state’s people, businesses, opportunities, culture and development.
The platform was unveiled at the weekend at the Nigeria Union of Journalists (NUJ) Hall, Iwe-Iroyin, Oke-Ilewo, Abeokuta, during an event attended by media practitioners, government representatives and other stakeholders.
Speaking at the launch, the Convener and Founder of Ogun 360, Machado Dolapo, said the platform was established to bring together the diverse stories, people, businesses, talents, opportunities and initiatives across Ogun State.
Dolapo explained that Ogun 360 was not created merely as another social media platform, but as a credible source of information for residents and others interested in the development of the state.
He said the platform would tell the stories of the people, amplify their voices, highlight opportunities, celebrate progress and strengthen the connection between communities and the information they need.
According to him, Ogun 360 would also provide young people with opportunities to discover new prospects, help businesses gain visibility and give communities a platform to tell their stories.
Dolapo said the team would remain committed to credibility, consistency, creativity and innovation, adding that the platform would strive to become a destination for everything relating to Ogun State.
“We want Ogun 360 to become a platform where a young person can discover an opportunity, where a business can gain visibility, where a community can have its story heard, where citizens can stay informed, and where the remarkable things happening across Ogun State can receive the attention they deserve,” he said.
