Chairman of the Nigeria Union of Journalists, Osun State council, Comrade Wasiu Ajadosu has identified the need for journalists to give special attention in their reportage to social cohesion and national integration for the unity of the country.

Comrade Ajadosu who noted that the media holds weapons of construction and destruction said it behoves on media practitioners, as the conscience of the society to live up to the statutory responsibility of promoting good governance.

The chairman was speaking in Osogbo at a 2- day workshop organised by the Nigerian Press Council with the theme “The Role of the Media in Promoting Good Governance and Social Cohesion”.
