Osun NUJ applauds Adeleke on employment of OSBC freelance staff, commissioning of six digital radio equipment
The Osun State Council of the Nigeria Union of Journalists NUJ has applauded Governor Ademola Adeleke for approving the immediate appointment of freelance staff of Osun State Broadcasting Corporation.
While delivering his speech at the commissioning of six digital radio transmitters and equipment purchased for the state government for the state-owned media outlet, the governor directed immediate engagement of the freelance staff who have been working for the corporation for more than ten years without pay.
A release jointly signed by the Chairman and Secretary of the Nigeria Union of Journalists, Osun State Council Comrades Wasiu Ajadosu and Adeyemi Aboderin described the gesture from the governor as highly commendable and the first since the establishment of the broadcast conglomerate.
The release noted that members of the fourth estate of the realm will forever be grateful to the Asiwaju of Ede land for the approval given for immediate employment of the freelancers into the State civil service.
It added that the gesture will enhance productivity and increase the work rate of staffers as well as raise the bar at the State-owned media outlet.
Osun NUJ equally commended the Governor for purchasing and commissioning new radio equipment for Osun State Broadcasting Corporation, which is hoped to further enhance the corporation’s status as the Regional Voice of the West.
It enjoined the newly engaged staff to reciprocate the gesture by continuing to support the government of the day in its quest to better the lives of the state’s people.
