Jimoh Ibrahim


This was sequel to the court ruling that gave victory to the company’s minority shareholders and ordered the stoppage of publication of Daily Newswatch

The billionaire Publisher of Daily Newswatch, Dr. Jimoh Ibrahim, has shut the newspaper and opted for a new one independent of the old title.
This was sequel to the court ruling that gave victory to the company’s minority shareholders and ordered the stoppage of publication of Daily Newswatch.
In the bid to comply with the court ruling, the Ondo State-born politician opted to register and publish the newspaper under a new name.
Consequently, the Daily Newswatch has ceased to exist, while the staff of the company have been transferred to the new publication outfit, Newswatch Times.
As against the defunct Daily Newswatch, which was a 96-page newspaper, the Newswatch Times is a 72 page all-colour newspaper.
It has already hit the newsstand.
