Correspondence Chapel Of NUJ Benue State Boycotts Gov Suswam's Government Due To Maltreatment By His Security Men.

MEMBERS of correspondent chapel in Benue State have boycotted the government activities following the shabby treatment been meted to them by security operatives attached to the state governor, Mr Gabriel Suswam.

 According to the statement issued by the chairman of the chapel, Sunday Ogli, a copy made available to the Journalists,the chapel regretted the frequent neglect and inhuman treatment meted to its members.

The chapel also observed with bitterness, the ruthless and cruel manner the governor’s security men harassed correspondents whenever they travelled with him outside the state capital on any official assignment.

It noted that in spite of persistent pleas to the governor to provide a suitable vehicle for trips with him outside the state capital, he had continued to endanger the lives of its members by providing them rickety bus.

“Similarly, we observe with regret, the way the Special Adviser to the Governor on Media and Public Affairs often sidelined our members on very important state matters and addressed journalists in Abuja and Lagos,” he said.
