As the forthcoming 10th Triennial Delegates Conference of the National Association of Women Journalists (NAWOJ) slated for 13th -14th November 2020, approaches, the National Secretariat of the Nigeria Union of Journalists (NUJ) wishes to advise all contestants to shun anger, bitterness, and campaign of calumny as they go about seeking for votes across the States.
In a statement by Midat Joseph Assitant Secretary of the association said Contestants must also rein in their followers to shun bitterness and rancor in order to make this election credible and as well make NAWOJ better.
Women Journalists Task KNSG On LG Elections
While it is important to note that it is God who gives power to whom he wishes to, we urge them to see this election as one exercise of people belonging to one family under God and must conduct themselves in a manner that shows the sacrifice of patriotism to the Union.
This sacrifice of patriotism is not for us alone, but for the generations yet unborn and the future of the Union.
We believe the contestants are mature persons, and as such; their utterances, actions, and inactions should portray the good character and not do things that would bring the Association to disrepute.
The National Secretariat remains neutral in this election and will continue to play its fatherly role to all.
