A respected journalist and unionist, Comrade Seun Odunlami, has formally declared his intention to contest for the position of Internal Auditor in the forthcoming Ogun State Council elections of the Nigeria Union of Journalists (NUJ).
Odunlami made the declaration on Wednesday, November 12, 2025, shortly after obtaining his nomination form at the NUJ Secretariat in Abeokuta, signaling his official entry into the race for one of the council’s key executive positions.
A passionate advocate for ethical journalism, financial integrity, and accountability, Odunlami said his decision to join the contest was driven by a deep commitment to strengthening transparency and restoring members’ confidence in the internal management systems of the union.
“I am offering myself to serve because I believe Ogun NUJ deserves a leadership that is financially responsible, transparent, and committed to the highest standards of integrity,” he stated.
The frontline aspirant emphasized that the office of the Internal Auditor remains pivotal to the union’s overall credibility, playing a crucial role in ensuring accountability, protecting members’ interests, and upholding the financial health of the organization.
If elected, Odunlami pledged to introduce routine financial audits, publish periodic reports, and ensure that all expenditures are duly verified and justified.
He further promised to work closely with chapel leaders to promote financial literacy and encourage responsible fiscal management across all structures of the union.
“My candidacy is about reform, transparency, and a renewed sense of purpose. I believe Ogun NUJ can set a new standard for financial discipline and accountability,” Odunlami affirmed.
His declaration has already begun to resonate among journalists within the state, with many describing his aspiration as a timely call for reform-oriented leadership in the Ogun NUJ.
The forthcoming Ogun NUJ election is expected to attract strong contenders across various positions, with observers predicting a keenly contested but issue-driven campaign.
Odunlami’s campaign team, “Seun’s Team: Rebuilding for Accountability,” is led by Comrade Rasaq Ayinla as Chairman, Comrade Modupe Salabiu as Secretary, Comrade Folake Ade Adeniji as Treasurer, and Comrade Ibikunle as Financial Secretary — all of whom share his vision for a more transparent and accountable union.
