The National President of Nigeria Union of Journalists, NUJ Chris Isiguzo has called for legal termination of a stalled housing project for journalists in Lagos.
It would be recalled that the Nigeria Association of Women Journalists, NAWOJ/NUJ in 2016 signed a Memorandum of Understanding, MoU to build eight hundred housing units for journalists at Abaren Village in Obafemi Owode Local Government, Ogun State.
However, the agreement incorporated the NUJ which mapped out a portion of land sold to its members for the estate to be constructed by PrimeWaterView.
Isiguzo during a stakeholders meeting with subscribers, developer and members of NUJ and NAWOJ, said that the project was marred by irregularities as all parties in the project erred. The President after deliberation for hours ruled that the project from inception was not properly planned.
Also, NAWOJ President, Ifeyinwa Omowole explained that there were some hitches because state officials of the NAWOJ flouted her order to ensure subscribers paid directly to the bank.
