17 journalists are going to be awarded in different categories at the 13th edition of Nigeria Media Night-Out Award.<\/p>\n

This is an award that has been on the vanguard of recognising the output of the media in our society for the past 13 years, and we are not going to rest on our oars, even though it has been easy to do this year in year out and this year we intend to make it elaborate and special.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe intend having many Nollywood stars for the award to add glitz and glamour to the event.\u201d<\/p>\n

Alabi, an entertainment journalist who has invested about 20 years in the industry added that, \u201cWe will also honour late Precious Owolabi with a posthumous award.<\/p>\n

\u201cHe was a young man who believed in the profession he practiced passionately. He also paid the supreme price. He was fearlessness. We as an organisation that always recognises the good works of journalists have to acknowledge his braveness though it was a very painful death.<\/p>\n
