From His 1st Book at 13 to TV Producer 19: Chude Jideonwo Celebrates 25 Years in Media @40

Media entrepreneur and host of #WithChude has announced the year-long celebration of his 25-year career in the media – which falls on the same year he turns 40.

He announced this with a post on his social media platforms and a new photoshoot on Monday, 6 January 2025.

The celebrations include 21 years of his business partnership with Adebola Williams, 20 years as a public relations leader, at Red Media Africa, 19 years of Africaโ€™s biggest youth awards The Future Awards Africa, 15 years of the online media platform YNaija.com and 5 years of the regionโ€™s most watched talk-show, #WithChude.

In a very special interview thatโ€™s coming out later this month – my first profile interview in 5 years – the interviewer who is also a dear friend exclaimed when I told her my career started in 2000 at 13, my first novel was published. โ€œI didnโ€™t know that! How come you donโ€™t talk about it?โ€

I answered with a smile: โ€œMy sister, there are so many things done and so many stories to tell, that I just focus on the one thatโ€™s happening today,” he shared in the first post.

One of the things I enjoy most, thinking about my life is how I have lived many lives as she puts it. Itโ€™s exactly the kind of life I have always wanted to live.

“All the work roles I have played in my life” – Chude shares

TV host, event host, radio host, TV producer, radio producer, podcaster, author, scriptwriter, film director, film producer, film investor, media investor, media trainer, actor, brand manager, PR consultant, advertising practitioner, book reviewer, music reviewer, movie reviewer, investigative reporter, magazine publisher, magazine editor, newspaper editor, newspaper columnist, board member, academic fellow and university lecturer.

He added: “This young man from Obomkpa, Delta State who grew up by the canal in Ijeshatedo, Lagos State – shy, insecure, afraid – has grown up to live a full, deep, rich life. I am so proud of it, I am so thankful for it, and I hope it shows people what is possible. So when people who have seen this journey for the past 25 years exclaim: โ€œYouโ€™re just turning 40?โ€, I smile.
