The President of the Nigeria Union of Journalists (NUJ), Mr Chris Isiguzo, has called on all Nigerians to support the government in addressing the challenges of security in the country.
During a visit by the President of the Nigerian Institute of Public Relations (NIPR), Dr Ike Neliaku, and his team, Isiguzo emphasized that addressing the issue of insecurity should not be left for the government alone, as it is a collective responsibility.
Isiguzo highlighted the importance of providing useful information to security agencies, no matter how small, as even seemingly insignificant details can help resolve a particular challenge.
He also urged Nigerians to change their strategy and support the government in their own ways to ensure that the country gets out of these issues of insecurity.
The NUJ President further stressed that running to other countries is not the solution, as life is not always easy and rosy in foreign lands.
He emphasized that Nigeria is safe and that, with faith in the country, its citizens can take care of any problems they face.
Dr Neliaku, on the other hand, sought the partnership of the NUJ to generate sustained focus on the contributions of stakeholders in different sectors.
He emphasized the significant role both the NUJ and the NIPR play in shaping public discourse, promoting transparency, and upholding the values of democracy.
The relationship between journalists and public relations professionals is symbiotic, built on a foundation of mutual respect, understanding, and collaboration.
Both organizations play a crucial role in disseminating accurate information, fostering dialogue, and holding power to account.
It is essential for all Nigerians to support the government in addressing the challenges of security, as it is a collective responsibility that requires a united effort to overcome.
