HEADLINES IN HISTORY: The Fifty-Year Journey of the Nation Media Group

In 1959, the Nation Media Group was born in an old Bakery on Victoria Street in pre-Independent Kenya. Today it is one of Africa’s greatest success stories engaged in the publication, printing and distribution of newspapers and magazines, and radio and television broadcasting, in Kenya, Uganda and Tanzania. Indeed, the story of the birth and growth of the Nation Media Group is the story of African Nationhood. Headlines in History, a 60-documentary minute film, tells this story using dramatic reconstructions, gripping interviews and rarely seen headlines, photographic and film archive. Witness how African journalists across the decades risked everything to deliver the news and in the process, build a thriving, truly African business.
