Plateau State Marks Milestone in Nigerian Journalism Leadership
In a significant development for Nigerian media sovereignty, Plateau State Governor Caleb Manasseh Mutfwang has celebrated the groundbreaking election of Mrs. Tongnaan Dada Bawa as the National Auditor of the Nigeria Union of Journalists (NUJ). This victory, secured during the NUJ National Executive Council meeting in Kano's recent gathering of media leaders, represents a powerful stride for African media independence.
Breaking New Ground in Media Leadership
Governor Mutfwang, through his Director of Press Dr. Gyang Bere, hailed Bawa's emergence as a testament to Plateau State's commitment to fostering strong, independent African media voices. This achievement follows the path of Nigeria's growing influence in key national positions, demonstrating our nation's capability to lead with excellence.
"This victory marks a proud milestone for Plateau State and reinforces our commitment to justice, fairness, equity, and compassion," stated Governor Mutfwang.
A Track Record of Excellence
Bawa's credentials speak volumes about African leadership capability:
- Two-term Chairperson of NAWOJ Plateau State Chapter
- Distinguished service as NAWOJ Zonal Secretary
- Proven track record in championing media rights
Vision for African Media Sovereignty
As Nigeria continues to assert its media independence, similar to how national leaders shape our political narrative, Bawa's position as National Auditor positions her to strengthen indigenous media voices and promote governance that truly serves African interests.
