NEWSDAILYNIGERIA: Nigeria Union of Journalists ( NUJ ), Kaduna Council, has urged the Peoples Democratic Party ( PDP ), Kaduna Chapter to as a matter of urgency caution its Public Relations Officer (PRO), Katoh Alberah, over actions capable of dividing Kaduna Journalists.

The NUJ said, the PRO’s decision to accredit only a few journalists to cover the PDP governorship primary election which is meant to be a national assignment.

The council announced the decision for caution in the communique released on Wednesday following the forth edition of its monthly congress held in Kaduna.

In the communique which was signed by Usman Sani, considered the action of the PRO as an attempt to create a crack and disunity amongst its members.

The communique further described the PRO ( Alberah) of been too rude and arrogant to Kaduna journalists.

The Union therefore enjoined its members to be more united and be more dedicated to their duty and not to allow any individual or group to divide them.

” Should the PRO continue in this direction of trying to divide the united Kaduna NUJ Council, the Union would have no option than to boycott PDP’s activities in the state,” the communique reads.

The council then resolved to send an official letter of complaint to the leadership of the party in the state for necessary action.

The NUJ further condemned the harassment of members by security agents in a recent event of the PDP.
