Dada Ahmed in Lokoja

Journalists working in kogi state have expressed concern over the deplorable condition of township roads in Lokoja the State capital.

The members of the fourth estate of the realm expressed the feeling in their communique at the end of their Congress at the weekend, signed by the Chairman, Alhaji Mimohjimoh Adeiza.

The congress noted that the roads linking Ganaja Junction to Ganaja Village and Army Barrack to Zango had become death traps to motorists and other road users.

The journalists also decried the state of the seven kilometres Ganaja road which they said had claimed many lives, due to motorists driving against traffic to evade deplorable portions of the road.

They, therefore, called on the state government to commence rehabilitation and reconstruction of bad roads in Lokoja.

The journalists added that relevant agencies, such as FERMA, KOGROMA and Ministry of Works be mobilised to site, to rehabilitate the roads to save the residents and travellers the agonies.

The Congress, however, felicitated with Governor Yahaya Adoza Bello on his election victory at the Supreme Court.

While acknowledging the government’s immense contributions to the upgrade and face-lift of two major state-owned media houses – the Graphic and Radio Kogi, the congress appealed to Bello to provide working tools for the organisations, to enable them effectively discharge their mandate to the people.

Members of the Nigeria Union of Journalists in the state also called on the state government to revalidate the partnership assistance the previous administrations had with NTA, Lokoja and Radio Nigeria (Prime FM), Lokoja.

The Congress praised the state government for her decision to resume full salary payment to state government workers.

The Union appealed to the state government to check the activities of revenue agents whose activities, it noted, constitute nightmare to motorists and other revenue paying people in the state.
