MTN Nigeria has opened applications for the fourth edition of its Media Innovation Programme, a six-month fellowship designed to equip media professionals with insights into the evolving media and technology landscape, the company said in a statement on Monday.

A statement on Monday noted that the programme, in partnership with the School of Media and Communication at Pan-Atlantic University, will begin on May 19 and includes a study visit to the University of Johannesburg in South Africa.

The telco said the programme is open to journalists, broadcasters, bloggers, and social media content creators.

Chief Corporate Services and Sustainability Officer, MTN Nigeria, Tobe Okigbo, stated, “When we launched MIP in 2022, our goal was to enhance media professionals’ reporting capabilities and deepen their understanding of the technology sector, empowering them to become true media innovators.

“Seeing the impact of the programme over the past three years has been both inspiring and humbling. We are proud to continue this initiative and invite all eligible media professionals and content creators to seize this opportunity by applying for the fourth cohort.”

The Dean, School of Media and Communication at Pan-Atlantic University, Dr Ikechukwu Obiaya, said that the programme continues to improve and evolve.
