Written by wave FM on March 19, 2021
Governor NYESOM WIKE has accused Journalists of failing to hold the All ProgressivesCongress-led federal government accountable for the challenges facing the country.
Governor WIKE made the assertion when the Board of Editors of anational Newspaper paid him a courtesy visit to notify him of his award as “Governor of the Year 2020 for Infrastructure Development”.
The Governor wondered why journalists in the country had supposedly lost their voice and could not speak out against the bad governance.
He attributed the current situation faced in the country to the role of journalists who contributed in pulling down the administration of former President GOODLUCK JONATHAN because he hailed from a minority ethnic group.
Governor WIKE charged the Nigerian Union of Journalists to challenge public office holders to showcase their developmental strides to the citizenry.
