about
in-depth journalism, de-mystifying Africa with Insights & independent reporting
this is Grey continent
The Grey Continent explores the modern issues of Africans, especially their cultural and political landscape, with great depth and sincerity. The title is a play on the description of Africa, during the Victorian era (and in modern times) as the “Dark Continent” – often used as a shorthand for a backward and mysterious place.
Launching with a focus on the 2023 Nigerian Presidential Elections, we aim to use modern and interactive ways to engage our readers in the politics, business, culture or lifestyle topics concerning Africans or the wider diaspora.
We are actively looking for new supporters and contributors for the Grey Continent. If you know a voice, an academic or a technologist who could be a good fit for us, please contact us.
