    Workers Day: Youths Digest trains campus journalists on career development, investigative reporting ‬

    Youths Digest, the organiser of annual Campus Journalism Awards & Dialogue, has trained young journalists on developmental journalism and investigating reporting, especially on the Covid-19 pandemic.‬

    ‪The training, which was organised in collaboration with the Civil Society Legislative Advocacy Centre (CISLAC), featured Mr Lekan Otufodunrin, Executive Director, Media Career Development Network Services and Ajibola Amzat, the Editor at the International Centre for Investigative Reporting.‬

    ‪The first phase of the training was coordinated by Lekan Otufodunrin, who spoke on building a career in journalism.‬

    ‪While commenting on the need for journalists to see journalism as a Social duty, the former Managing Editor of The Nation Newspaper, urged campus journalists to develop interest and skills in developmental and investigative reporting to a better and transparent society.‬

    ‪”Prominence should not be the goal of any journalist but being excellent in your work. You may also need to report major issues in unique and excellent ways to be noticed either by your organization or the world generally. Do it as a duty,” he stressed.‬

    ‪He praised the efforts of Campus journalists, who he said need more encouragement and supports.‬

    ‪”I must commend the zeal I have noticed in campuses by students especially those where Mass Communication is not offered, yet they have done a lot to promote campus journalism on their own. They need more encouragement and support”.‬

    ‪On the other hand, Aamzat, who spoke on Investigating Covid-19 pandemic, focused on investigating guidelines for campus journalists.‬

    ‪He noted that the ICIR has assisted campus journalists with small grants before the arrival of COVID-19. The organization has also mentored many young writers and budding journalists. ‬

    ‪”The opportunity is still available subject to funding we receive from our donor foundation” he noted.‬

    ‪He also pointed out that Campus journalists can use Digital Tools to report Covid-19.‬

    ‪”Campus journalists can undertake reporting assignments at this period using several open-source tools available. Google, Twitter, Facebook, and other tech companies have created tools that can be used to report from home. Learn about these open sources, and use them” Amzat stated.‬

    ‪Amzat also advised that journalists must also be conscious of their health while covering assignments.‬

    ‪”The infection does not distinguish journalists from non-journalists. It attacks all equally. Therefore, journalists covering COVID-19 need to protect themselves,” he said.‬

    Meanwhile, Maryam Ileyemi, a Campus Journalist from Lagos State University said that the tweet chat was very enlightening and insightful. Another campus journalist from Uthman Dan-Fodio University Sokoto hailed Youths Digest for organising the workshop during this pandemic and that he learnt about new skills and knowledge that will be helpful in his journalism career.

    ‪Comrade Auwal Rafsanjani, the Executive Director of CISLAC, praised Youths Digest for organizing the online workshops, assuring them of CISLAC’s continuous support.‬

    • Army trains 106 Cadet officers to curb insecurity The Nigerian Army has trained 106 Cadet Officers of the 69 Regular Course of the Nigerian Defence Academy (NDA) in mechanised operations to address the country’s security challenges. The Commandant, NDA, Maj.-Gen. Ibrahim Yusuf, said this during the closing ceremony of the training at Victor Kure Armoured Range in Bauchi on Thursday. Yusuf said the week-long training tagged: “Exercise Battle Crime,” was to expose them to various mechanised operations in tackling insecurity. “This exercise here today is the final phase of mechanised operations which is the phase four of the cadets. “The objective of the exercise is to expose the cadets to mechanised operations in order to prepare them in dealing with the current security threats,” he said. Yusuf said that the cadets would be graduating from the Academy in October, adding that there were seven female officers among them. He said that the training was in collaboration with the Armoured Corps, the Corps of Artillery and the Special Operations Command of the Nigerian Air Force. Yusuf said before the training, the Cadets were at the Nigerian Army School of Military Engineering, Makurdi, where they participated in an assault river crossing operations across River Benue. He added that they moved from there to the Citizenship and Leadership Training Centre, Jos, Plateau State, where they went through the adventure phase of their training. He commended the Chief of Army Staff (COAS), Lt.-Gen. Faruk Yahaya, for his resolve in making the training possible. “All these couldn’t have been possible without the overwhelming support from the Chief of Army Staff. All the tanks, the Artillery guns that took part in this operation were courtesy of the CAOS. “We appreciate the Army Headquarters for this outstanding support and I also want to appreciate the Chief of Air Staff that has authorised the Air Force to provide close air support during this phase of the operation,” he said. Also speaking, the Commander, Armoured Corps, Maj.-Gen. Suleiman Idris, disclosed that it was the first time the NDA Cadets would be coming to Bauchi State for this kind of training. Idris noted that the training was apt due to the security challenge in the country. “This is because when you are giving training to Cadets that are going to become officers who will be leading men to war, it is ideal to expose them to this kind of exercise,” he said. Also, one of the trainees, Officer Cadet Maryam Wawu, described the training as an eye opener. Wawu said it had broadened their knowledge on how effective the Nigerian Army could be in tackling insecurity. She also said the training had strengthened synergy between the combat arms, Combat Service Support Arms and sister services, especially the Nigerian Air Force. By PRNigeria
