“Congress further blacklists the Government of Cross River State from any media coverage by all the members of Nigeria Union of Journalists in the state for organising an illegal press conference thereby creating a platform for Fani-Kayode to abuse and insult a journalist, Mr Eyo Charles of the Daily Trust Newspaper,” it added.
