Former Vice President and chieftain of the All Progressive Congress
(APC), Atiku Abubakar, has charged the new leadership of the Nigeria
Guild of Editors (NGE) to partner with the current administration in the
dissemination of government programmes as well as other critical groups
in the society to see that our country gets good leadership through
timely and unbiased information gathering and management.
This is as he also he praised the Guild for displaying “exceptional
leadership and good conduct in the way it was able to organize within a
short time a rancor-free and credible election, which saw the emergence
of a new crop of leaders to pilot the affairs of the association”.
The APC chieftain said this in a statement issued by his media office in
Abuja to felicitate with the entire members and leadership of the
Nigeria Guild of Editors on a peaceful and successful election at its
biennial convention in Lagos at the weekend.
Atiku said the outcome of the election, which has brought a new national
executive team in place under Mrs. Funke Egbemode as President,
Suleiman Uba Gaya as Deputy President and other well-known Editors is a
testimony to the enduring legacy of the Guild.
