Delta State Governor Senator Dr Ifeanyi Okowa has congratulated Managing Director of the New Telegraph Publishing Limited, Mrs. Funke Egbemode, who was yesterday, re-elected the President of the Nigerian Guild of Editors (NGE).

Governor Okowa in a statement issued in Asaba on Sunday by his Chief Press Secretary, Charles Aniagwu, described the re-election of Egbemode as appropriate and well-deserved, adding that going by her contributions to the guild, it was expected that she would be re-elected.

The Governor noted that the entire members of the guild deserved accolades for re-electing Mrs Egbemode as President of the guild due to her invaluable and significant contributions to the journalism profession.

He further described Egbemode as a role model who has proved her mettle in the profession, adding that her recent re-election was well-deserving and an inspiration to other women striving to make a name in the profession.

“As Nigeria continues to grapple with the challenges of economic recession, it is therefore a challenge on the NGE, to ensure that editors continue to set agenda for the diversification of the economy through their editorial comments and feature writings,”

Okowa urged Egbemode to bring her wealth of experience to bear, not only in advancing the course of the guild, but also the journalism profession in general.
