‘Why the media must rise against hate communication’ — Features — The Guardian Nigeria Newspaper – Nigeria and World News

As journalism remains a critical sector in promoting the socio-cultural and political existence of Nigeria as well as promoting her unity, conventional media firms have been tasked to take advantage of the chaos of online media to re-launch themselves and prove their relevance. The call was made at a one-day workshop organised by the Nigerian Press Council (NPC), in collaboration with Word and Image Ltd, a communication consultant firm in Abuja recently.

With the theme ‘Hate Communication in Nigeria: Identifying its Roots and Remedies,’ the event was attended by 74 media professionals and academics across the country.
