On the directive of President Muhammadu Buhari, the Villa Press Pass of
the Radio/TV Deutsche Welle State House Correspondent, Mr. Ubale Musa,
which was withdrawn in the last days of the Jonathan Administration, was
restored to him today.
Presenting the re-issued Press Pass to the correspondent at the
Presidential Villa, the Special Adviser to the President (Media &
Publicity), Mr. Femi Adesina said that Mr. Musa’s re-accreditation as a
State House correspondent was in keeping with President Buhari’s
commitment to correcting the wrongs of the past.
“Part of the change promised by President Buhari is correcting things that
were wrongly done before. Mr. Ubale Musa’s accreditation was wrongly
withdrawn. To redress the wrong done to him by the withdrawal, we have
returned his Villa Press Pass to him so that he can continue his work
without hindrance,” Mr. Adesina said.
In his brief remarks after receiving his Villa Press Pass, Mr. Musa
thanked President Buhari and his media team for restoring his
accreditation.
He promised that he will continue to do his work as a State House
Correspondent objectively, professionally and with due regard for the
ethics of journalism.
