PRESS RELEASE

Kwara NUJ not silent over detained journalists

The Nigeria Union of Journalists (NUJ), Kwara State Council is doing all it can to prevail on the Chief Press Secretary (CPS) to the Kwara State Governor, Rafiu Ajakaye, to withdraw the petition against two of its members, Dare and Abdulrasheed Akogun who were invited, interrogated, arraigned and subsequently remanded at the Mandala Correctional Centre, Ilorin over an allegation of defamation against his principal and his person in their WhatsApp posts on a popular whatsapp platform.

Though the issue that triggered the petition to the police and subsequent prosecution in court was painful and most unfortunate, the State Council of NUJ has not rested on its oars in exploring amicable settlement with the ultimate hope that the matter would be permanently laid to rest in no time.

However, in the spirit of an injury to one is an injury to all, the leadership of the State Council of NUJ took it upon itself, for the past days, to ensure amicable resolution of the issue involving its members, Dare Akogun and his brother, Abdulrasheed Akogun, even though we chose not to make it public, prior.

The National Secretariat of our Union had been properly briefed about the development and had also waded in.

The union is using this opportunity to appreciate the State Government for the support given to journalists in the State and promised to sustain the harmonious relationship between the Union and the government.

Likewise, the Kwara NUJ wishes to clarify that none of its members staged a protest at the Headquarters of the Kwara State Police Command, Ilorin in the early hours of Friday (October 14, 2022) over the detention of the said members of the Union, on the strength of the petition written by CPS to the Kwara State Governor, Rafiu Ajakaye.

While we recognize that it is the exclusive preserve of people, who feel aggrieved to register their displeasure over the decision of the state police command to detain both Dare Akogun and Abdulrasheed Akogun, as constitutionally guaranteed, the public should be aware that no member of the state council of NUJ participated in the protest that allegedly culminated in the dispersal of the protesters.

The union would want to set record straight that it has, over the years, been enjoying a good working relationship with the state police command and expect that the collaboration is sustained.

EKITI AFAN CHAIRMAN LINKS RISING COST OF FOOD ITEMS TO FARMER-HERDER CLASHES, KIDNAPPING

By Lanre Omotosho

The Ekiti State chairman, All Farmers Association of Nigeria, AFAN, Adebola Alagbada has attributed increasing cost of food items to the challenges of kidnapping and incessant clashes between farmers and herders.

Mr. Alagbada stated this in an exclusive interview with MihubTv correspondent in Ekiti on this year's occasion of World Food Day.

He explained that kidnapping and farmer-herder clashes had made many farmers to abandon their farmland, leading to low availability of farm produce.

Mr Alagbada pointed out that hunger, malnutrition and poverty in Nigeria is on the rise and warned that urgent measures needed to be taken to check food insecurity.

"We have the issue of herder, we have the issue of kidnappers, among numerous others. Financial assistance is not forthcoming. With all these challenges we have not been able to meet the challenges of food security in Nigeria."

The Ekiti State AFAN Chairman however pointed out that over sixty percent of Ekiti residents engage in crop farming, fishery and animal rearing, but called for assistance of farmers through loans, fertilizers and chemicals.

He noted that monthly allocation from the federation account could no longer sustain the economy of the State, hence the need for the Government to access various Federal Government's agricultural intervention programs to improve revenue and check hunger.

In 1945, United Nations set aside October Sixteen as World Food Day to raise awareness on the need for Government to ensure that there is food for all.

In 2021, the UN had stated that forty percent of the world's population could not afford healthy diets due to insecurity, climate change as well as diseases.

The theme for this year's World Food Day is "Leave No One Behind".
