Okoye, made the call on Monday.

He said Nigerian journalists play vital roles in the socio-economic and political development of the country, adding that they deserve better treatment.

He identified poor remuneration, lack of health insurance and insurance cover for accidental death as major problems confronting journalists in the country.
