What you find in the media at times is that they are so adversarial to the government, which does not have to be. This is our country, and we don\u2019t have any other one.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIf they send the country into a tailspin through too much criticism, even the media won\u2019t even be able to do its work. So, we should always bear in mind that it is our country and whatever we make of it is what we get.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Presenting the award, the representative of Love FM, Ewuzie Lilian, expressed the organisation\u2019s pride in the work of Mr Adesina as a journalist, having got to the peak of his career through dint of hard work.<\/p>\n<p>She said, \u201cWe are happy to identify with you because we know how you started. You rose through the ladder and here you are, still doing the media work. We know it is not everybody that will accept what you are doing.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>She assured the spokesman of the support of Love FM despite some reports that suggest otherwise.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSometimes we criticise you, we learnt that from you anyway. Before you got here, you were criticising others. We have come to say congratulations despite all that has happened.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe are proud at the level you have reached and pray that God will sustain you and give you more wisdom to deal with the challenges associated with the job,\u201d she added.<\/p>\n<div class=\"yj6qo\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"adL\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<!-- AddThis Advanced Settings generic via filter on the_content --><!-- AddThis Share Buttons generic via filter on the_content --><!-- AddThis Related Posts generic via filter on the_content -->","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Presidency, on Wednesday, said the \u201ctoo much criticism\u201d from the media may send the country into a tailspin.
