Former Director General of National Broadcasting Commission, NBC, Dr. Tom Adaba has advised Kogi State Governor, Alhaji Yahaya Bello to overhaul his media team if he wants to return for a second term.
Speaking at the Second Edition of Kogi State Council of NUJ Democracy Day Lecture, Dr. Adaba said he was worried over the image makers of the Governor.
"The media team should not present him as a demigod, they should try as much as possible to avoid using gutter language while responding to critics.The media aides have been covering up their incompetence by creating imaginary entity between the Governor and the mainstream media in the State by promoting the social media higher and above the conventional media that obeys ethics," he noted.
"Their major function is to win friends for the Governor rather than making more enemies for him," he opined.
Also speaking, a veteran Journalist, Mr. Tunde Ipinmiso noted that the language of government communication should be matured, tamed and regulated with a view to winning friends for Government, but express worry at the kind of the language of communication that emanate from the Government House at Lokoja.
