In a resounding endorsement of journalistic excellence, the TY Buratai Humanity Care Foundation has officially commended Cable Media and Publishing Ltd, the esteemed publishers of TheCable.ng, for their unwavering commitment to the principles of independence, impartiality, and integrity in their reporting.
This commendation was articulated in a statement signed by the foundation’s chairman, Ibrahim Dahiru Danfulani Sadaukin Garkuwan Keffi/Betara Biu, and has been made available to the press.
The statement reads, “The foundation’s recognition underscores TheCable’s steadfast dedication to delivering knowledge-driven journalism that prioritises the public interest. Since its establishment on November 29, 2011, and the subsequent launch of its online platform on April 29, 2014, TheCable has consistently strived to be a beacon of respect and integrity in the Nigerian media landscape. The publication’s editorial values—independence, impartiality, integrity, defense of public interest, and respect for diversity—serve as a guiding light for responsible journalism, ensuring that the voices of all Nigerians are heard and respected.”
The commendation also highlighted the role of the foundation’s grand patron, Lt Gen Tukur Yusufu Buratai (Rtd), former chief of army staff, as a stalwart advocate for professionalism in journalism.
“Gen Buratai’s commitment to upholding the highest standards in his field reflects a profound respect for those who dedicate their lives to the pursuit of truth and accountability. His patronage symbolises a deep-seated belief in the importance of media freedom, particularly for journalists who operate free from partisan and sectional interests.
“In a world increasingly fraught with misinformation and bias, the TY Buratai Humanity Care Foundation’s recognition of Cable Media and Publishing Ltd is timely and essential. The Foundation applauds TheCable for its fair-minded and even-handed approach to reporting, which resonates with the values of a democratic society that thrives on diverse perspectives.
“As the media landscape continues to evolve, the foundation’s commendation serves as a clarion call for all media practitioners to emulate the principles exemplified by TheCable. It is a reminder that journalism is not merely a profession but a vital pillar of democracy that demands respect, integrity, and an unwavering commitment to the truth.
