Oyo NUJ Disowns Group Operating Under ‘Divine Mandate Movement’
The Nigeria Union of Journalists (NUJ), Oyo State Council, has dissociated itself from a group of journalists operating under the name Divine Mandate Movement, declaring that the body is not recognised by the union.
In a disclaimer issued by the council, the leadership of the union said its attention had been drawn to the activities of some individuals reportedly led by one Raji Adebayo who claim to be operating under the Divine Mandate Movement within the NUJ Oyo State structure.
The council leadership, under the State Chairman, Akeem Abas, stated that the group is not known to the union and does not operate with the approval or authority of the Oyo State Council of the NUJ.
According to the statement, the union emphasised that it does not recognised the activities of the group and therefore cautioned members of the public, organisations, and institutions to be wary of engaging with them in any official capacity.
The council further warned that anyone who chooses to conduct business or enter into any form of transaction with the group does so at their own risk, stressing that the union would not be held responsible for any outcome arising from such dealings.
It noted that the disclaimer was issued to set the record straight and protect the integrity of the Nigeria Union of Journalists in Oyo State, while urging stakeholders and the public to always verify information or engagements through the appropriate channels of the council.
