History[edit]
The News Digest was established on March 28, 2018.[1] The Abuja-based news media outfit became popular after the arrest of the webmaster of the news site, Mr. Adebowale Adekoya[2] by Nigerian Police Force from Kwara over a news report by Alfred Olufemi[3] about one of the companies of a former Central Bank of Nigeria's Deputy Governor, who is currently an aid to president Muhammadu Buhari, Dr. Sarah Alade called Hillcrest Agro-Allied Industry in Kwara State Nigeria. The controversial article is titled: "Inside Kwara Factory where Indian Hemp Smoking is ‘Legalized’." The webmaster was later released after five days of unlawful detention. The publisher, and the journalist that carried out the investigation were charged to court.[4]
