Unilorin VC congratulates Ahmed, new Kwara NUJ Chairman
The Vice-Chancellor of the University of Ilorin, Prof. Sulyman Age Abdulkareem, has congratulated Mr Abdulateef Ahmed of "The Herald" Group of Newspapers on his election as the new Chairman of the Kwara State Council of the Nigeria Union of Journalists (NUJ).
In a statement signed on his behalf by the institution's Director of Corporate Affairs, Mr Kunle Akogun, the Vice-Chancellor also rejoiced with other members of the new executive council of the Union on their emergence as he commended the peaceful nature of the exercise.
The Vice-Chancellor also commended other contestants for the spirit of sportsmanship they displayed before, during and after the elections, saying that the larger society has a lot to learn from the way journalists in Kwara State conducted themselves.
Prof. AbdulKareem, who is also the Chairman of the Committee of Vice-Chancellors of Nigerian Universities (CVCNU), reminded members of the fourth estate of the realm of their responsibilities to the society as he said that the nation expects much more than the media is currently doing in the struggle for the entrenchment of democracy and peaceful coexistence.
The Vice-Chancellor, while praying God to afford the new Chairman and members of his team all they would need in piloting the affairs of the Council beyond expectations, assured journalists of the cooperation and support of the nation's most sought-after University at all times.
