The Nigeria Union Journalists (NUJ) and the Nigerian Guild of Editors (NGE), on Sunday, in Lagos, warned politicians against what they described as politics of destruction ahead of the 2023 general elections.
The two bodies gave the warning at a special reception by the Crime Reporters Association of Nigeria in honour of Governor Yahaya Bello of Kogi State, held in Lagos.
Speaking on the sideline, the National President, NUJ, Chris Isiguzo, and the President, NGE, Mustapha Isa, particularly commended Governor Bello for turning the security situation in Kogi State around for good, saying those bent on undermining winning strategies to score political points should not play with the lives of Nigerians.
Governor Bello was represented at the event by the Kogi State Security Adviser, Commander Jerry Omodara (retd).
