The President, Sports Writers Association of Nigeria (SWAN), Otuekong Bonny Nyong, has reiterated that the National Executive Committee (NEC) of the Association is not aware of any Full Council Meeting scheduled for Kano State.
According to him, the NEC of SWAN has not yet decided on any venue nor date for the Full Council Meeting and could not have fixed early May, when workers all over the world would be celebrating Workers Day.
He called on States' chairmen and secretaries to be wary of people who have either been impeached or suspended from office, from deceiving them.
Otuekong Nyong noted further that at the appropriate time, the NEC of SWAN would meet and deliberate on the five states that have submitted bids to host the full council meeting.
"I want to assure all sports writers in Nigeria that we are on the right path to ensure a progressive Association, able and capable of responding to issues as they develop.
"I am not unaware of desperate attempts to blackmail and malign some of us. It is a necessary route to take, especially when people fail to see beyond the present," he stressed.
He called on discerning members of the public to be wary of unapproved awards and honours that do not have the approval of the SWAN NEC in accordance to laid down procedures in the Statute.
Signed
Olalekan Ige
Secretary General
