A Kwara state based online news medium is planning to train university undergraduates with passion for journalism.

Speaking with newsmen at a get-together to mark five years anniversary of the foundation in Ilorin, the chief executive officer, Mr. Salihu Taofeeq said the foundation will enable beneficiaries to develop skills and improve their performance in the field of communication and media industry.

He said the foundation would collaborate with experts and institutions to remove the obstacles usually faced by trainees.

Taofeeq, who announced plans by the medium to go national said the training would be supervised by prominent media professionals and experts across Nigeria and beyond.

He noted that the training would combine the practical and theoretical aspects of the courses with 80 per cent emphasis on practice.
