A recent column by Martins Oloja expressed anger and regret over the state of Daily Times and the Federal Radio Corporation of Nigeria. Daily Times, considered Nigeria's newspaper of record, marked its 100th anniversary on June 1, while the Federal Radio Corporation of Nigeria celebrated its 75th anniversary in April.
These milestones evoked mixed feelings, particularly regret, as the institutions have not lived up to their founders' intentions. Oloja's column discussed the decline of Daily Times, which was once a prominent and professional publication.
Further details on Oloja's column and the history of these institutions are available from the source.
