Seeking better remuneration for Nigerian journalists CJN_Nigeria Kingbiodun_nujenews IPCng freepressunltd ICIJorg pressfreedom IFJGlobal ICFJ TC_Africa thomfound

Irrespective of the dwindling economy and the economic comatose we’ve plunged ourselves into in Nigeria, there’s a dire need to find ways of ameliorating the plights of journalists and other beleaguered Nigerians. Journalists and indeed all Nigerian workers deserve a better welfare either from both public and private corporations or organisations.

The horrendous situation journalists are facing in Nigeria has, however, prompted the Premium Times Centre for Investigative Journalism and the Coalition of Whistleblowers Protection and Press Freedom to strongly advocate better welfare for journalists.

While we’ve all perceived that one of the welfare conundrum which can be tailored down to poor remuneration as one of the biggest challenges facing the profession, there’s need for better working conditions of service for journalists, especially those in the news room working for long hours – a palatable environment could suffice for this, including welfare provisions for journalists which will eschew them from any negative actions.

The need for Nigerian journalists to be well and adequately remunerated coupled with the needed welfare packages to enhance their duties must be strongly advocated because of the enormous sacrifices and valuable contributions to societal growth. So, therefore, a good pay is necessary so as not fall as a prey to monetary inducement.
