The Congress also calls on Private Media owners in Oyo State to allow their staff to unionize by registering with Nigeria Union of Journalists, NUJ, and observed that failure of the practitioners to be members of the Union will continue to make them vulnerable to whims and caprices of oppressive proprietors/owners of such media houses.
The Council further notifies members on the existence of Ethics and disciplinary committee and readiness to carry out its functions to the letter.
The Council however urges members to welcome aspirants in the next National delegates Conference of the Union holding in Abeokuta, Ogun State with open mind to have a free and fair election
