Edo NUJ Council dissolved
National leadership of Nigeria Union of Journalists (NUJ) has set up a four man caretaker committee to run the affairs of the union in Edo State for three months, pending the election of a new state executive.
National secretary of NUJ, Shu'aibu Leman, in a statement, said the committee was set up following the expiration of the tenure of the Friday Obanor-led executive.
Members of the Committee are Simon Ebegbulem of Vanguard as secretary, while Tunde Egberemole of the Observer Newspaper is chairman. Others are Eghobamien (NTA) and Friday Isewede.
Leman said, "The former executive led by Obanor has been directed. They are to hand over all union property in their possession to the Interim Management Committee and to cooperate fully with the committee to ensure a smooth transition."
