Nyasa Times, an online news portal in Malawi, has integrated Mimiboard into their site hoping to create user generated content on the e-noticeboard.
The noticeboard publisher can be found on Nyasa Times, in Malawi, giving users ways to give announcements through social media and text messaging.
Nyasa Times offers readers online with breaking news, features, analyses and boasts of 10 million monthly page views.
With this new entrant into the Mimiboard family, the Umuntu Media owned platform is now available in 16 African countries.
“We are always looking for the best technology for our readers. Mimiboard by Umuntu Media complements and helps Nyasa Times to harness the social conversations buzzing around major issues,” said Edgar Chibaka, managing director of Nyasa Times.
“Mimiboard offers something that we did not have and would have taken us a lot of resources to develop. It is exciting to partner with a like-minded media technology company,” Chibaka added.
Johan Nel, founder and chief executive of Umuntu Media, said: “Access to information is a critical part of the development of this continent. Information leads to more knowledge, transparency, self-education and improvement. Umuntu Media is becoming the Pan-African local-content provider and one of the leading forces driving digital change.”
