Journalists in the North-Eastern part of the country have been urged to key into multimedia reporting in order to break the barriers of storytelling and disseminate information faster on multiple platforms. The three-day workshop on multimedia journalism for journalists in the region, was organised by Daily Trust Foundation with support from Mac Arthur foundation in Yola, Adamawa State. Speaking at the event, the Programme Director of Daily Trust Foundation, Dr Theophilus Abbah, said multimedia journalism was the use of different mediums such as text, photos, video, sound, and graphics in a single piece to tell a more compelling and well-rounded story. Participants of the workshop were drawn from print, electronic and online media drawn from northeast states of Bauchi, Borno, Yobe, Taraba, Gombe and Adamawa.
