We are not here to compete with traditional media—we are here to complement, innovate, and lead the way in responsible, ethical, and impactful journalism in the digital age.</p>
<p>Dangambo said as your chairnan I do not take this responsibility lightly. I am committed to building a chapel that upholds professionalism, promotes unity among practitioners, and protects the interests of our members. Together, we will pursue opportunities for capacity building and partnerships that empower our members to thrive in this fast-evolving media landscape.</p>
<p>He said he will strive to earn the trust of the public, ensuring that the content we produce upholds the highest standards of truth, fairness, and integrity. As online journalists, we have a duty not only to inform but to inspire progress and development in our society.</p>
