Good Evening My Fellow Obi Mbieri People
For 7 months, Obi Mbieri Independent Media Platform -eziokwubundu.com has told the stories that matter to our community online every day through eziokwubundu.com. Now we want to put those stories directly into the hands of people who can't always reach us online—our elders, our town unions, our churches, and our neighbours who still trust a paper they can hold.
We're launching a weekly print edition, starting with a pilot: 1000 copies a week from January 1, 2027, distributed across all Obi Mbieri towns, old Mbieri major centres, and Mbaitoli LGA and beyond. This pilot will tell us where the demand is strongest, so we can grow the print run responsibly from there.
What we need:
To print and distribute this pilot, we need ₦15,000,000. Here's exactly where it goes:
* Printing (paper, ink, press time, equipments, machines)
* Layout and design
* Distribution to vendor points and community / city locations

We'll publish a full update on how these funds were used once the pilot is complete — that's a promise.
