Vivian Ottih, the nursing mother who was suspended for demanding her salary and that of her colleagues in the Imo Broadcasting Corporation in 2020.<br>Barr Ottih, the re-elected Chairman of the National Association of Women Journalists (NAWOJ), Imo State Chapter was among those who opposed the criminal attempt to sell off the Imo NUJ Secretariat by the duo of Mr Chris Akaronye and Mr Innocent Igwe to a former governor with the tacit support of the National President. We understand that Emelumba, upon emergence as Commissioner for Information endorsed the criminal action and aligned himself with the activities of the vandals and fraudsters\u00a0 who succeeded in cajoling him into taking up a belligerent and antagonistic stance against practicing journalists in Imo State.<br>The Union however considers Ottih&#8217;s reinstatement as a welcome development and heartily commends the Governor, Senator Hope Uzodinma for his fatherly understanding, seeing through Emelumba&#8217;s primitive rhetoric, and decisively addressing one of the issues raised in our seven-paged\u00a0 letter to him.<br>We salute him for taking a stand for justice.<br>In the same vein, we wish to appreciate all state and non-state actors who have shown genuine interest in understanding the true situation in the Union&#8217;s face-off with the Commissioner for Information, Mr Declan Emelumba who has all along\u00a0 been obsessed with blackmailing Imo journalists and undermining journalism practice in Imo state, those who have gone the whole hog to intervene and give mileage to the struggle to reclaim our union and practice from vandals, impostors and unscrupulous travelers.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Nigeria Union of Journalists (NUJ), Imo State Council has received with joy the
