Communique On The Defence Correspondents’ Seminar 2017 Organized By The Directorate Of Defence Information

Both the Armed Forces of Nigeria and the Press should always be conscious of national security and national interest in the  totality of their information management.

There should be no mutual suspicion between the military and the press.

The Armed Forces of Nigeria would release timely and accurate information to the press for onward dissemination to the public.

The regular dialogue between the press and the Armed Forces of Nigeria should be sustained.

The press should endeavor to clear grey points from the appropriate Defence Information before publishing.

Defence Information sources should make themselves readily and easily accessible to Defence Correspondents.
