Voice of Nigeria (VON)

Native Kotlin Android app for Nigeria’s national broadcaster: feature work, stability, and playback in challenging network conditions.

Key Achievements & Responsibilities

  • Contributed across MVVM screens, networking (Retrofit), persistence (Room), media (ExoPlayer), and background work (WorkManager).
  • Partnered on driving down crash reports by roughly 30% through defensive handling, lifecycle fixes, and clearer errors for playback and networking.
  • Implemented offline playback so users in low-connectivity regions could still consume content reliably.
