Our History
The Nigeria Union of Journalists (NUJ) was established in March 1955 in Lagos. It emerged out of the desire to bring all working journalists under one professional and welfare-focused organization. The union has since grown into a respected national body, advocating for press freedom, professionalism, and protection of the rights of journalists in Nigeria.
Over the years, NUJ has maintained its relevance by engaging in constructive dialogue with government, media owners, and civil society to ensure a robust and democratic media space.
