Senator Joshua Dariye |
Former governor of
Plateau state, Senator Joshua Dariye has called on journalists across the
country to be objective in their reportage.
He made this call after
the Kano state stakeholders meeting with the minister of works, Arc Mike
Onolememen at the Works headquarters, Abuja.
Dariye said we have no
other country than Nigeria and we cannot afford to destroy it. He stressed that
if we leave the country for another country, we remain second-hand citizen.
Dariye warned that we
cannot enjoy what the citizens of the country are enjoying hence the need to
join hands with government to build the country.
He said his mission to
the ministry of Works is on a solidarity visit on Senator Bashir Mohammed on the
Kundila bridge project and the Panyam road project in his state.
“The media must
criticize government objectively because most of the news we hear are alarming.
It scares investors and where we need to woo people; we woo them because if you
go to Saudi Arabia, or America, you will not find your pounded-yam, eba, egusi
soup and others.
“Most of the people that go
there are second-class citizens. You talk about their weather, it is not
conducive. Everybody said it is Goodluck, what is Goodluck, he is the combination
of my effort and your efforts.”
