Have Nothing to Fear, Buhari Assures Journalists
President
Muhammadu Buhari has assured the newly elected President of the Nigerian Union
of Journalists (NUJ), Waheed Odusile, and all journalists in Nigeria that
his administration will consistently uphold their right to perform their
constitutionally assigned role in society without hindrance.
A
statement issued today by the Special Adviser to the President on Media and
Publicity, Mr Femi Adesina said Buhari looked forward to working in a
harmonious partnership with Odusile, the new NUJ executive and media
practitioners in Nigeria as the Federal Government was striving to end the
scourge of Boko Haram, improve national security, rebuild and expand national
infrastructure, accelerate the pace of economic development across the country
and create more employment opportunities for Nigerian youth.
Buhari,
in a congratulatory message to Odusile on his election, said he
"believed that with his worthy credentials, long experience and
antecedents as a highly respected and reputable professional, Mr. Odusile can
be expected to discharge his new responsibility of leading the NUJ to greater
heights of accomplishment with distinction."
