5 NUJ Members Escape Death In Cross River As Union Bus Burn To Ashes


This is not the best moment for members of the Nigerian Union Of Journalists, Cross River state Chapter as five of its members escape death on Saturday while the Union bus was burnt to ashes. The Union led by its Chairman, Comrade Ndoma Akpet, Secretary Nsa Gill and other senior members of the union were on their constitutional duty of monitoring and reporting the local government election when their Union bus caught fire.
Our findings reveal that the NUJ team started their journey from Calabar and went round the major local governments around the Southern Senatorial District before proceeding to the Central part of the state where the Governor and other key players in the elections exercised their franchise.
