And is the reason why we have not gotten it right as a nation.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">When Nigeria got its independence, there were high hopes and\u00a0 expectation by Nigerians that Nigeria will be a continental leader and a global player ever politically.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">\n<div dir=\"auto\">\n<div dir=\"auto\">\n<div dir=\"auto\">\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">&#8220;We\u00a0 cannot get it right if we do not have a stable policy that is secured through credible electoral\u00a0 processes.&#8221;<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">&#8220;So political campaigns which of course suggests that we want to seek or influence decision of the electorates in their choice have taken a different turn recently. The same way we can say election has taken a different turn recently.<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">&#8220;And so while the politician rely on you to feature them, the citizen are also relying on you to cover the electionary process, and do so with some sense of professionalism.&#8221;<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">Explaining how cumbersome the role of the media is, &#8220;our position as middlemen\u00a0 places us in a tight corner thus creating ambiguity and dilemma in the discharge of our duties.&#8221;<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">\n<div dir=\"auto\">The enormous challenges not withstanding, the presenter urged that the media remains upright in the discharge of its duties.<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">&#8220;As agenda setters, the media and practitioners must strive to avoid conflicts, ethnic, religious identities as well as sectional subservience.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">Only what is in the national interest should be paramount.<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">&#8220;There has to be genuine desire to diversify our newsroom to compliment our multicultural ecosystem as a society.<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">Speaking on media reform,<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">\n<div dir=\"auto\">&#8220;The improper distinction between the Nigerian press council as regulatory organ and an administrative clearing house for journalists has to be clearly articulated. Including the ambiguity in the role of the Nigeria Union of Journalists as professional or trade union.<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">&#8220;There is the need to from time to time review its statutory instruments and organs including the legal framework in order to entrench more professionalism in journalism practice.<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">As forebears and innovators, Nigeria media must diversity to meet changing economic realities.&#8221;<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">Balarabe in his presentation spoke on the need to look into the poor welfare condition of media practitioners as well as hostile working environments which he said threatens their safety.<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">&#8220;Nigeria Union of Journalists must place premium priority on repositioning journalism practice through various strategies which includes\u00a0 consistent capacity development and an overhaul of the ethical provisions of practice.<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">&#8220;We currently suffer gap of informed commentary, analysis or interrogative journalism as a result of falling standard for journalism teaching and many, including the overall poor citizen media literacy. It is a mandate that all of us are bound to pursue and deliver.<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">\n<div dir=\"auto\">&#8220;I appeal to the media to justify it&#8217;s special title as the 4th estate of the realms by leading our country to the path of righteousness. He added.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">Awards of excellence were given in recognition of contributions of various individuals and
