About BOLGAMETROVOICE
The authentic voice of Bomadi Local Government Area
Our Mission
BOLGAMETROVOICE makes media connecting you to the movements, people, and perspectives that are advancing the cause of a more just, equal, and livable community. We broaden your understanding of the issues, contexts, and voices behind the news headlines in Bomadi Local Government Area.
We are rigorous in our journalism and dedicated to the facts, but unafraid to engage alongside movements for change, because we believe journalism and media making has a critical role to play in illuminating pathways for collective action in our community.
That's why we make media engaging people not as a passive audience of consumers and spectators, but as active—or soon-to-be activated—participants in the struggle for a better community. Our platform highlights the voices and ideas not just of our leaders and pundits, but of our people, while working across platforms, we have a primary commitment to digital video journalism.
This is where you come in.
We're a nonprofit newsroom because the kind of truth-telling journalism we do simply can't happen under corporate ownership. We shine a bright light on the dark corners of power and report the facts that other media won't touch. What makes this possible? Supporters like you.
