The National Secretariat of the Nigeria Association of Women Journalists (NAWOJ) has congratulated the Nigeria Union of Journalists (NUJ) on its 70th anniversary, describing the milestone as a remarkable achievement in the history of the union.

In a statement signed by NAWOJ’s National Chairperson, Comrade Aishatu Ibrahim, the association commended the leadership of NUJ, particularly its President, Comrade Alhassan Yahaya, and the first-ever female Deputy National President, Dr. Mrs. Abimbola Oyetunde, for their dedication to the union’s growth and professional development of journalists.

“We have grown in leaps and bounds, and there is no doubt there will be greater and even more continuous growth, healthy solidarity, camaraderie, and professional development. This is exemplified by the candor and fatherly disposition of the team led by our capacity-driven President, Comrade Alhassan Yahaya,” the statement read.
