How not to report trials
It is a season of high profile trials. From the various petitions at the election petition tribunals to the trials of former governors, Nigeria's judiciary is perhaps facing one of its greatest challenges. The cases at hand, the fallouts of the April general elections and the allegations of corruption and embezzlement against some former governors have drawn international attention to the country.

The April elections, which have been described by many as a charade, have seen many of the aggrieved individuals and parties approaching the tribunals set up for that purpose.

'Titans have passed in Nigerian Journalism'
He is dynamism personified. Call him a poet, playright, fine artist, musical promoter, sports administrator, building construction expert, information technology advocate and, you may not be mistaken. He got into journalism in the early 60s through Daily Express under the late Chief Bisi Onabanjo, popularly known as Aiyekooto. He spent fifteen years in active journalism. In his hey days, he was noted as a crack reporter in labour reporting. He became an editor/editor-in-chief of the defunct Daily Express, a national paper noted for its pungent reporting in the 70s, at the youthful age of 29, when many of his peers were still whirling in life's wind of uncertainties.

As a literary man, he has authored nine books amongst which are Ebony on Snow, Dance of the Vulture, Crystal Ball, Dark Days are Here, Meridian Hour etc. In this piece, Aderinokun speaks to MR's Femi Babatunde on life as a journalist, journalism industry and the league where he holds sway.
