more noise.
It needs more
understanding.

Our approach

not the
sidebar
to the world
story.

Entertainment. Sport. Innovation. Culture.
Entrepreneurship. People. Influence.

Not “African news” separated
from the world.
Africa inside the world.

Our perspective

Balanced.
Independent.
For a brighter tomorrow.

Marie Achebe

A global media initiative

Different nations. One world. Many stories.

The diaspora is the bridge

Someone can be Nigerian and British.

Ghanaian and American. African and European. Living in London while investing in Lagos. Living in New York while following entertainment from Accra.

Millions of people hold connections that span several countries at once, and most publications ask them to choose which half of themselves to read about. HERITAGE VOICE NEWS is built to understand that modern global identity rather than pick a side of it — which is what makes it the information bridge between Africa, the diaspora and the wider world.

Credibility matters more

Speed matters. Traffic matters. Virality matters. But the aim is a publication people trust, not simply one they click. News, reporting, analysis, opinion, sponsored content, press releases and Foundation content will each be labelled for what they are — a distinction that only becomes more important as a publication grows.

Before you ask

The questions that come up.

Is Heritage Voice News publishing yet?
Yes. It is live and open to readers at heritagevoicenews.com.
Is this a Nigerian news site or a British one?
Neither, and both. It originates in the UK and reports the world, with Africa and the global African diaspora sitting alongside Britain and America rather than beneath them. A reader in Manchester should find UK news, a reader in Lagos should find Nigerian news, and every reader should be able to see what is happening across the world.
How does it relate to the Achebe Hope Foundation?
It is a Foundation initiative — that is its origin and its purpose. Editorially it stands on its own, with its own newsroom identity and clear labelling separating news, analysis, opinion, sponsored content and Foundation content.
Will there be editions for other countries?
That is what the architecture is being built for — Heritage Voice News UK, USA, Nigeria, Ghana and Africa, each able to stand up without rebuilding the platform. The master brand always remains HERITAGE VOICE NEWS.
Can I write for it or partner with it?
Yes — correspondents, contributors and commercial partners are all being sought now. The contact page reaches the right people.
