about us
Naija Podcast
At Good News Naija Podcast, we recognise that stories shape perceptions. We create spaces where Nigeria’s most impactful voices can, therefore, share their journeys of transformation, innovation, and resilience.
Whether featuring a tech entrepreneur from Lagos, a community health innovator from Kano, or an award-winning filmmaker from the diaspora, we approach each conversation with cultural sensitivity and intellectual curiosity.
WHERE NIGERIA EXCELLENCE SPEAKS.
Meet the Host
Damilola Kehinde is a Nigerian film producer and storyteller with over six years of experience working across film and television. Her work cuts across documentaries, short films, and feature-length productions, with a strong focus on telling stories that reflect real lives, real challenges, and real impact.
She has produced both independent and commissioned projects for organisations and international clients, exploring themes such as sustainability, illegal migration, water and sanitation in underserved communities, and beauty standards in Nigeria.
At the heart of her work is a strength in documentary storytelling, particularly her ability to connect with people and draw out honest, powerful stories through interviews. This ability to listen, probe, and translate lived experiences into compelling narratives naturally led her to expand into podcasting.
As the host of Good News Naija Podcast, Damilola creates space for refreshing, necessary conversations that spotlight the resilience, progress, and untold positive stories coming out of Nigeria. Her work is driven by a clear intention: to shift perspectives, challenge narratives, and tell stories that truly matter.
