Chude Jideonwo Unveils A New Streaming Platform that Focuses on Mental and Emotional Wellness

Following the release of the teaser for his new docu-drama Is It Your Money? about Nigeria’s former oil minister, Diezani Alison-Madueke,  Chude Jideonwo – director of the film and host of talk show With Chude – has announced the launch of withchude.com, a niche streaming platform focused on mental, emotional and spiritual health.  

The streaming platform will house his already airing shows With Chude and Chude Explains and introduce a pool of popular and critically acclaimed films and specials. Additionally, it will introduce some new shows like Japa!,  with little or nothing known about the yet to be released title. 

“It has been inspired by the Oprah Winfrey Network and has been informed by the success that platforms like TheDailyWire+, Gaia.com and Angel.com have had finding a niche that changes lives or transforms the culture and building a subscription video-on-demand (SVOD) platform  primarily driven by paid subscribers”, said Chude Jideonwo in a press statement. 

Withchude.com will be driven by factual podcasts, documentaries, series and films from across Francophone and Anglophone Africa. The incoming platform touts itself as the only independent video-first platform powered by paid subscriptions and memberships in the region.

Speaking on the struggles that players in the streaming business face amidst a difficult Nigerian market, Jideonwo believes that “They trust the Chude storytelling brand, and they connect with meaningful content. That’s the entry point – one piece of high-quality content at a time” 

The streamer is in beta testing for selected viewers worldwide but will launch fully to the public on 1 August 2024.
