NUJ FCT Chairman urges Journalists to embrace Easter spirit

As Christians worldwide mark the resurrection of Jesus Christ, the Nigeria Union of Journalists (NUJ), Federal Capital Territory (FCT) Council, has extended warm Easter greetings to journalists and residents of the FCT, urging reflection on the values of sacrifice, hope, and renewal that the season represents.

In her Easter goodwill message, the Chairman of the Council, Comrade Grace Ike, called on media professionals and Nigerians at large to embrace the essence of Easter, highlighting its powerful message of unwavering faith and the triumph of good over evil.

“This season reminds us that no matter the difficulties we face, there is always hope for a better tomorrow,” Comrade Ike stated. “The resurrection of Christ is a symbol of victory, of life over death. It challenges us all to rededicate ourselves to unity, resilience, and selflessness.”

Addressing journalists in particular, the NUJ FCT Chairman emphasised the role of the media in fostering national development and cohesion. She encouraged journalists to remain steadfast in upholding the ethics of the profession and to continue acting as the conscience of society by promoting truth, peace, and justice.

“Even as we navigate through economic and social challenges as a nation, let this season inspire us to believe in a brighter future, made possible through collective effort and faith in God,” she added.

Comrade Ike also reminded journalists to prioritise their safety while carrying out their duties, reaffirming the council’s commitment to their welfare and professional development.

The NUJ FCT Council, through its Secretary, Jide Oyekunle, wished all Christians a peaceful and joyful Easter celebration.
