 Nigeria's former president, Olucia Guam Abasanjo, has enjoined the management and staff of Point Nigeria Ltd. to keep the flag flying and continue to sustain the legacy of the founder, late Chief James Abodering. Abasanjo stated this while speaking at a black-tied dinner to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the newspaper. Plus, TV correspondent Lovie Kuku Oyedekun was there and now reports. It was a night of incomium and commendations for the management and staff of the Point Nigeria Ltd for sustaining the legacy of his founder, Chief James Abodering, to part of a week-long event to run off the golden jibbly of the Point newspaper. The atmosphere was turning alluring and mesmerizing with special lighting, sophisticated deco, flowers, and serene music. People of Australia graced the events. In her address, the chairman, Point Nigeria Ltd. Mrs Angela Emoa, said dinner was aimed at celebrating everyone who has contributed to the success story of the organization. To you all, we say thank you. Today we also celebrate the countless stories told by our journalists, the voiceless voices that they amplify, and the boundaries pushed in pursuit of a better tomorrow. Ex-Nangira's president, Oluxiagu Obasanjo, is a close friend of the founder, late Chief Olu Abodering. In his brief remark, he relayed fond memories of the late Abodering, saying his objective of establishing the Point newspaper is fulfilled. She, of the idea of Point, is close to me. And again, I said to Ajit, I tell you, that it was out of identity that Olu Abodering decided to establish and found an organization. IT experts at the Doi Odunfa delivered the keynote address. She hopped on the need for the Point newspaper to unleash untapped potentials in achatad territory. In this new world, we don't have the benefit of hindsight. Indeed, headlines are generated by artificial intelligence. The task then is to digitize the entire value chain to generate intrinsic value. At 50, foresight becomes more important than hindsight. Surviving 50 years in a challenging economic climb, such as Africa, is indeed no main fate. No wonder the large turnouts, eulogies, and communes and commendations rent the earth for staff and management of one of Nigeria's oldest newspapers. One thing that Point is noted for is that you don't bribe to get your story published. They choose what is right and they stand by it. Fifty years, they've really done well. I was not there, let's say I was not there in 50, but at least in the past 20, 25 years that I have followed Point, closely they've destroyed their duty. At 50, it's time for Point to fast forward into the future and look at the dynamics of the global media landscape and innovate to meet the challenging times. And I have no doubt that they build resilience and they have the capacity to be able to evolve. Earlier in her welcome address, the chairman of the anniversary committee, Umi Tunde Ubi, disclosed that a unity in the family had kept the media house going 40 years after the passing of the founder. Highlights of the event was a cutting of the anniversary cake. Love Ikuku Uyiduku plus TV news.
