Last week I listed the top ten most read Newspapers in Nigeria. I got lots of responses from that post, people asking what the source of our statistics is. I responded by saying ‘they are responses we got from interviewing people at various regions in Nigeria and this research was carried out by a top research firm in Nigeria. Part of the job description of this research firm is also to help you track and monitor your advertising campaigns, please don’t forget to contact me in you ever need such service.
This week I will be listing the top 10 Radio stations in Nigeria. We believe this report is supposed to help you plan your advertising campaign. I also want people to bear in mind that this statistics can change from time to time depending on other external factors. For example; the class of people you are trying to reach can influence the station you should place your advert in. Not everyone will listen to a vernacular speaking station and not everyone will want to listen to an all English speaking station either. Every station has their target audience. You have to also do your investigations and research to determine which station is best suited for your advertising campaign.
