This was disclosed in a statement signed by the Chairman of the union , Comrade Wale Olanrewaju and the Secretary Comrade Bunmi Adigun on Monday.
The Union joins family, friends, political associates, and constituents in saluting a man whose public life has consistently reflected integrity, humility, and a deep commitment to service.
Fondly known as SAS, Senator Salisu has distinguished himself through visionary leadership and responsive representation. From his tenure as Chief of Staff to the Ogun State Governor to his current role at the National Assembly, he has championed numerous initiatives aimed at grassroots development, youth empowerment, and legislative excellence that continue to impact lives across Ogun Central and beyond.
The Ogun NUJ particularly acknowledges Senator Salisu’s unwavering support for media development, freedom of the press, and constructive engagement with journalists. His openness, accessibility, and consistent communication with members of the press set him apart as a true democrat and friend of the media.
Notably, the Union expresses deep appreciation for Senator Salisu’s recent generous donations, including a 12KVA solar system, 10 poles of solar-powered lights, and laptop computers to support the operations of the NUJ Secretariat and Members.
These gestures have significantly enhanced the working conditions and professional output of journalists in the state.
As he marks another milestone, the Ogun NUJ prays for continued strength, wisdom, and impactful years ahead for Senator Salisu. The Union once again congratulates him and looks forward to his sustained contributions to the development of Ogun State and Nigeria as a whole.
