The Director-General of the Voice of Nigeria (VON), Jibrin Baba Ndache, says efforts of President Bola Tinubu in tackling Nigeria ‘s challenges must be told in a manner that Nigerians and the international community would understand.
Ndache made the remark when he paid a courtesy visit to the Emir of Kano, Alhaji Aminu Ado Bayero, at his palace on Thursday.
He said that Nigeria had suffered negative publicity overtime, and that efforts must be made to change the narrative.
“We believe that there are positive stories to tell about Nigeria.
“There are so many good stories to tell about our country, not the way the country is being portrayed.
“One cannot stop telling positive stories about oneself because if he does not tell it, nobody will do it for him.
“The platform of the Voice of Nigeria is available to tell the positive stories about the country,” he said.
The director-general promised that Voice of Nigeria would be available to promote traditional values.
He said that he was at the palace to show respect for the emir.
He recalled that as the President of Students Union of his department at the Bayero University, Kano, in the past, he organised a tour of the palace for students.
The Emir, represented by the Walin Kano, Bashir Mahe Wali, decried dissemination of negative reports about Nigeria by some media platforms.
He commended the efforts of the director-general and his team members in changing negative narratives about Nigeria
