The Nigeria Union of Journalists (NUJ) FCT Council, has warmly congratulated the former President of the National Association of Women Journalists (NAWOJ), Comrade Evelyn Onyilo, on the well-deserved conferment of the African Leadership, Strategic, and Development Award.
This recognition is a testament to her exceptional leadership, visionary contributions, and unwavering commitment to the growth of journalism, good governance, and sustainable development across the African continent.
Her continued service beyond office has further amplified her reputation as a strategic leader and development ambassador whose influence transcends borders.
In a statement signed by the Secretary of the Council, Comrade Jide Oyekunle, on Monday in Abuja, the honour was described not only as a personal achievement for Evelyn Onyilo but also as a source of pride for the entire journalism family in the Federal Capital Territory and Nigeria at large.
Onyilo’s recognition reinforces the enduring value of ethical leadership, dedication, and integrity in nation-building.
“We believe this award will inspire and motivate her to do even more for humanity and younger generations who see her as a role model and source of inspiration,” the Union said.
