General News
THE Secretary to the Government of the Federation and Chairman of the Presidential Steering Committee on COVID-19, Boss Mustapha, has joined others to celebrate the Nigerian media on the occasion of the World’s Press Freedom Day.
The SGF noted the contributions of the Nigerian media in the containment of the fight against the COVID-19 pandemic, stating that journalists made sacrifices in filing reports day and night, particularly at the onset of the pandemic in which press briefings were held by the then Presidential Task Force on daily basis.
He noted that their contributions led to the dissemination of accurate information to the citizenry through jingles, advertorials, and various educational programs on their platforms.
He assures media practitioners of the continued support of the Presidential Steering Committee on COVID-19 while urging practitioners to use their role as purveyors of news to build a strong and united country by adhering to the ethics of the profession through truthful and accurate reports.
