The National Vice-President of Nigeria Union of Journalists, Zone H, Mr. Gbenga Onayiga, has urged journalists to be accurate in their reports, the News Agency of Nigeria reports.
Onayiga made the call while presenting a paper titled, ‘Choosing responsible and accountable leaders’ at a one-day workshop to sensitise the media on credible elections in April.
The workshop was organised by Tender Dreams Communications in collaboration with the Independent National Electoral Commission.
He said journalists must always ensure that their reports did not jeopardise the existence of the country.
According to him, media practitioners must always balance their reports by ensuring that the other side is given a fair hearing.
He said as opinion molders, journalists should ensure neutrality in their reports.
