About Vanguard
Vanguard Newspapers is published by Vanguard Media Limited, a privately held Nigerian media company. It was established in 1984 by veteran journalist Sam Amuka-Pemu and three associates. Sam Amuka-Pemu remains active as the publisher.
Media Bias/Fact Check rates Vanguard News Nigeria as left-center biased on editorial positions that moderately favor the left and gives it a 'Mixed' rating for factual reporting due to past misinformation. Ground News also assigns a 'Lean Left' bias and 'Mixed' factuality rating. The outlet has faced criticism for frequent retractions and publishing unconfirmed stories, raising concerns about its editorial policy. In 2018, the newspaper's editorial board chairman caused controversy with an ethnic slur on social media, from which Vanguard dissociated itself. The broader Nigerian media environment is challenging, with journalists facing harassment, arrests, and violence, and press freedom impeded by criminal defamation laws.
