Last updated August 31, 2026
Overview
Daylight is an independent Nigerian daily online newspaper associated with Lagos and published by Mattuxx Media Limited. The publication was established in 2014 and operates under the Daylight Newspaper name. Its stated publishing model is digital and daily, placing it within Nigeria's online news and current-affairs media sector rather than the apparel or sportswear categories supplied in the original brand record. The publication's known leadership includes Azuh Amatus, identified in reference material as the publisher and editor-in-chief. Beyond that basic institutional profile, publicly available reference material provides limited detail about Daylight's ownership structure, editorial departments, audience size, website address, circulation, commercial performance, or geographic expansion. It is therefore best characterized as a Nigerian independent digital news brand with a Lagos publishing base. No verified information in the supplied sources establishes a broader international operating footprint, a stock-market listing, a parent group beyond its stated publisher, or specific flagship editorial products. The brand's principal offering is its daily online newspaper, which presumably distributes news and commentary through digital channels, but the supplied references do not provide enough detail to describe individual sections, formats, or specialist verticals without speculation.
History
Daylight was established in 2014 as an independent daily online newspaper in Nigeria. The publication is based in Lagos and is published by Mattuxx Media Limited. Its formation placed it within Nigeria's expanding digital-news environment, where online publications provide daily reporting and commentary without relying on a traditional printed newspaper model. The available reference identifies Azuh Amatus as the publisher and editor-in-chief, indicating that editorial leadership and publishing responsibility are closely associated with the publication's operation. Publicly documented information supplied for this dossier does not establish the circumstances of the newspaper's founding, the identities of any additional founders, its original launch platform, or the development of its editorial and commercial operations. It also does not provide verified information about ownership changes, acquisitions, rebranding, major redesigns, circulation, readership, or international expansion. Accordingly, the documented history is limited to the newspaper's establishment in 2014, its independent online-daily format, its Lagos base, its publication by Mattuxx Media Limited, and its association with Azuh Amatus as publisher and editor-in-chief. The brand should not be confused with other organizations or products using the name Daylight.
