As the November 11, 2023 governorship election in Kogi State draws near, Isiguzo urged journalists to be fair to all parties contesting the election.

“Our duty to report accurately, fairly, and fearlessly is our pledge to the public, a covenant that underscores the importance of our role in shaping public discourse, influencing policy, and fostering social change.

“The stories we tell, the issues we highlight, and the voices we amplify contribute to the fabric of our society’s narrative,” he stated.

He urged journalists to be wary of overheating the polity, adding that discerning journalists should be able to separate serious politicians from genuine ones.

He cautioned journalists to be professional and unbiased in the reporting of the governorship election, pointing out that the Kogi election was about the people and not a section.

On the unveiling of the book “Media Development in Kogi State, 1999-2023,” the NUJ described it as a “remarkable literary endeavor that captures the evolution of media in this state over a span of twenty-four years.

“I am particularly honored to have contributed the foreword to this significant publication.”
