There cannot be a denial of the great lacunae that exist in public awareness of the great things that Ejagham people have done, and are doing. While Ejagham people have never, before now, taken the lead in telling their individual stories to a global audience, a more critical inquiry reveals a deliberate attempt in some quarters to attenuate – if not to outright deny – the role of Ejagham actors when serious local and national commentaries are composed. On the other hand, some great achievements and legacies of Ejagham people lie behind due historical lenses, thereby risking the longevity and efficacy of necessary pieces of evidence to tell Ejagham inspiring stories. In the end, as it is now, very few stories about Ejagham great achievers exist to inform the world about the ingenuity of Ejagham, nor inspire young Ejagham to aspire to achieve even more. This prevailing situation calls for a more constructive elixir. Thus, the essence of this programme.
Based on the foregoing, EjT Media has designed this programme that shall be managed by its research unit, which is a special group of talented historians, journalists, and ICT experts.
The mission is to produce documentary memoirs of great Ejagham people alive and transitioned.
The objectives of this programme include;
- To address the overall lack of awareness of the great feats Ejagham people have attained, and continue to attain, locally, nationally, and globally.
- Publicise great stories of Ejagham individuals to inspire young Ejagham people to realise their potentials with the consciousness that they are promoting their Ejagham heritage simultaneously.
- Celebrate and immortalise certain Ejagham achievers as a reference for future generations.
- Put into proper context the achievements and legacies of Ejagham people otherwise mis/under presented.
- Highlight the individual and collective roles Ejagham people have, and continue to play to further the course of their immediate environment and beyond.
