Governor
Adams Oshiomhole of Edo State says journalists must never glamorize criminals
who intend to undermine the sovereignty and unity of the country, saying such
persons must be reported as enemies of the nation.
Oshiomhole
receiving the National Executive Council of the Nigeria Union of Journalists, NUJ,
led by its Chairman, Mallam Mohammed Garba at the Government House on Friday,
also urged journalists to serve as a watchdog and insist that votes must count
in the 2015 General elections.
He expressed
gratitude that the NUJ has maintained the tradition of accountability adding
that as the 2015 elections are approaching, it is his belief that it is the responsibility of the
NUJ to make it loud and clear that the votes must count.
Chairman of
the NUJ, Comrade Mohammed Garba earlier said they were in the state for the NEC
meeting of the union and to use the opportunity to take stock of what the NUJ
has achieved so far and the challenges for the 2015.
He commended
the governor for his developmental strides and
sued for its sustenance, adding that they have seen quite a number of changes
and initiatives of the governor
