The first of the documentaries and the publication are titled, \u2018Voices From Covid-19 Frontlines\u2019 while the second documentary is titled \u2018Voices From #EndSars Frontlines\u2019.<\/p>\n

The event being organised to commemorate the year 2022 World press Freedom Day held globally on May 3rd under the theme: \u2018Journalism Under Digital Siege\u2019, will also feature a stakeholders\u2019 roundtable on protection for journalists during periods of national crisis or public emergencies.<\/p>\n

Mrs. Stella Nwofia, IPC\u2019s Programme Manager, said in a statement that the two-in-one-event is conceived by the organisation to bring stakeholders together to examine sustainable frameworks and mechanisms for halting media repression, stop impunity for crimes against journalists and guarantee the safety of journalists, amidst concerns over the shrinking of the civic space in Nigeria.<\/p>\n

According to her Dr. Kole Shettima, the Director of MacArthur Foundation will deliver the Keynote address while Alkali Baba Usman, the Inspector General or his representative shall also be a speaker. Mr. Kabir Yusuf, the President of NPAN, is expected to present the publication.<\/p>
