Speaking to journalists in Abuja, he said he doesn’t believe he has sufficiently served his constituents to deserve recognition from a reputable organisation like the NUJ.
The NUJ held an award ceremony on May 4th in Abuja as part of World Press Freedom Day celebrations.
Agbese, Governor Hyacinth Alia of Benue State, and others were nominated for awards. Despite acknowledging the NUJ’s efforts, Agbese stated that neither he nor Governor Alia deserves awards as they have yet to fulfil their promises to the people.
