The North East Online Network of Nigeria NEON; an umbrella of online publishers in the northeast, has congratulated the newly elected executive members of the correspondents’ chapter of the Nigerian Union of Journalists, Adamawa state.
In a statement, issued by chairman, Mr. Adamu Muhammad Dodo, NEON while congratulating the new Exco, also commended the maturity exhibited without rancor by the congress members of the chapel in deciding the leadership through consensus.
However, NEON prevailed on the new Exco led by Comrade Daji Sani of Thisday newspaper, to rekindle the candle a reminiscent of those days when beggarly journalism was considered unprofessional and ‘’ an injury to one,is an injury to all!’’
“To be able to succeed, you have to be in romance with the salient features of leadership; confidence, courage and fairness with transparency and integrity as the twin pillars.
“You have to take the path of professionalism and put away beggarly journalism defined as demeaning, integrity deafening and morale dampening; an anathema to journalism as an ideal not idle profession.
“We hope that having a journalistic will, you will willingly lead, a review after the system study, of reportage with new accent redirecting reportage more to the human angle, developmental and investigative, with objectivity and balance in the spirit of fairness.
“We know this crop of leadership elected consensually, joins the “yes we can” philosophy as a guiding maxim.
“Accept the assurance of our highest support, cordiality and cooperation,” NEON chairman said.
