Nigeria news has had a colourful, fascinating and fascinating history. Traditionally, Nigeria news was transmitted with a number of neighborhood instruments: drums, sticks, gongs, fire, and voice e.t.c.

The nearby people have to uncover a strategy to transmit news of joy, death and war to their community with out the added benefits of cell phones, radios, television and all latest technology.

This really is where the story gets interesting.

The men and women devised methods to communicate long distance together with the 'famous talking drums'. It's fascinating to watch masters of this act; send and get messages merely by beating a drum. Towards the unwary onlooker, the drummers are causing a cacophony of sounds, but towards the educated ears in the drummers; a lively, heated argument or conversation akin to cellular phone chat of nowadays is going on.

In jest, drummers have already been recognized to question the beauty and womanliness with the other community and strength of its male folk. The drum was an integral part of the communal life. The drum marked calendar of festivals of the communities. It recorded deaths, births.

Today, Nigeria News is transmitted mostly through the radio, newspaper and electronic version. Initially, Nigeria news was transmitted via the newspapers, state owned radio and later government owned Television stations.
