We are Zambia’s independent digital newsroom — delivering fact‑based journalism, stories that matter, and a voice for the people. Born in Lusaka, with a global perspective.
Truth, integrity, and the Zambian spirit.
The Real Times digital started in Lusaka with a small team of passionate journalists. We wanted to create a digital newspaper that reflects the reality of Zambia and the African continent.
To provide accurate, balanced, and independent news that empowers citizens, holds power accountable, and celebrates the rich diversity of Zambia.
To become the most trusted digital news source in Africa — built on integrity, innovation, and a deep connection to our communities.
We are proudly Zambian. Our reporters are based in Lusaka, Ndola, and Livingstone — covering stories from the cities to the villages. We believe in the power of local journalism to drive change.
