The President of the Nigeria Union of Journalists (NUJ), Mohammed Garba, has urged members of the pen profession not to perpetually remain at the level of being the watchdogs of the Nigerian Society but to also be ready to sacrifice their wealth of experience towards the nation building by seeking and aspiring for political positions in government.
Garba in an exclusive interview with LEADERSHIP SUNDAY said, journalists have sacrificed so much to the political evolution of the Nigerian project , stressing that it is rather unfortunate that politicians are the ones who eventually reap from the selfless sacrifices of journalists and over the years have exhibited high degree of corruption and unpatriotic tendencies by mismanaging the commonwealth of the county. He therefore enjoined journalists to be politically conscious and to seek for elective positions in government .
