The President of the Nigerian Guild of Editors (NGE), Mr Eze Anaba, has urged energy editors and reporters to focus on deeper interrogation of the issues surrounding Nigeria’s energy sector, insisting that energy journalists should develop their skills and capacities for a deeper understanding of the industry.

This is just as a former presidential spokesman, Mr Femi Adesina, has decried lack of climate literacy as a major reason for the underreporting of climate change by Nigerian journalists.

Adesina also decried energy poverty and linked it to the poverty afflicting many households in Nigeria.
