Journalists have been advised to uphold their professional code of ethics at all times.
Delta State Commissioner for Information, Mr. Patrick Ukah, gave the advice in a press statement to felicitate with Journalists in Delta State during the World Press Freedom Day celebration with the theme, “Critical Minds for Critical Times: Media’s Role in Advancing Peaceful, Just and Inclusive Societies”.
Mr. Ukah said when Journalists learn to work according to the ethics of the profession, they would enjoy the protection of the Constitution, which according to him, is strong enough to defend them.
The commissioner expressed joy that Journalists enjoy freedom in the course of carrying out their jobs in the state, stating that the administration of Governor Ifeanyi Okowa had always maintained a cordial working relationship with the Press.
He said that Pressmen all over the world, and in particular our own environment, should learn to work according to the ethics of the business, stressing that if that is done, Pressmen will continue to enjoy freedom of the press because the constitution is strong enough to defend pressmen in the country.
