All Progressives Congress (APC), Delta State celebrates members of the Nigeria Union of Journalists, Delta State Council on the sucessful election held on the 6th of October, 2020.
From available information to Delta APC, there is no gainsaying the fact that as members of the Fourth Estate of the Realm, they have proved to Deltans that they are capable of carrying out election that is devoid of intimidation, harassment and overt manipulations, unlike a situation wherein in most cases, the will of the people are subverted and/ or circumvented such as was the case in the Local Government Council elections in Delta State by the powers that be! From us in Delta APC, NUJ, Delta State Council has shown nobility.
Also, we want to use this opportunity to congratulate the recently elected Executives of Online Media Practitioners, Delta State. The efforts of members of the Association towards bringing to the public domain, the good side and the ills of the present Government in the State as part of their contributions for the development of Delta State is second to none! Members of Online Media Practitioners in Delta State have continued to exhibit the highest sense of professionalism and we say kudos to them!
While Delta APC celebrates the new Executives of NUJ, Delta State Council, we want to say that we are ready to partner with these noble men and women for the good of all Deltans.
Meanwhile, we urge/pray the Executives to tailor the minds of members towards working for the good and wellbeing of our dear State. That is, there should be less emphasis on brown envelopes and Government patronage. Rather, they should speak to authority irrespective of whose ox is gored; as that is the only way we can have a better State.
From Delta APC, congratulations once again to the newly elected Executives and members of the Fourth Estate of the Realm.
Sylvester Imonina, Esq.,
Publicity Secretary, APC Delta State.
