For his first visit to Brila FM, Odusile was able to explain the NUJ’s plans to check the menace of fake journalists through registration. He intimated everyone present on how the NUJ will complete the task through the biometric registration of its members following their completion of the online process on http://www.nuj.org.ng.

While noting that the exercise was not a witch-hunt, Odusile stressed that the biometric registration is a must as scannable ID Cards will be allocated. According to him, members will get ID cards that will be valid for three years.
