Journalists aren’t meant to be poor – CJID Board Chairman

The Chairman of the Center for Journalism Innovation and Development (CJID) Board stated in a recent conference held in Abuja that the call to practice journalism isn’t a call to poverty.

“When I decided to become a teacher and media practitioner, I told myself that I was not going to be poor and then put in more effort,” Prof. Umaru Pate said, and called on journalists to take advantage of the skills shared during the conference to equip themselves economically.
