Photo-Journalism students of the Nigerian Institute of Journalism had their annual exhibition displaying their works for the year in the hall of the institution on Wednesday 26th July, 2012 with the provost of the institution Dr. Mrs Elizabeth Nkem as the special guest of honour.
The chief host and Coordinator of the photo-journalism programme in the Institution, Mr Boye introduced the students - Murewa Isaiah, Adewale Ojeleye, Babatunde Alabi, Ibrahim Olawale Amoo, Ayodele Efunla and Azeezat Folake Odebiyi declared them as ''the best set to have gone through the programme'' and that he was very proug of them. In her remarks before declaring the event opened, Dr. Nkem thanked Mr Boye for his committment to the programme and also thanked the students for their hardwork, deligence and committment as well stating that ''this is the first set i did not get any negative report from and we did not have to start running after you to do your assignments.''
After declaring the exhibition openned, staff, students of the institution and other invited guests proceeded to the hall to view photos taken by the photo-journalism students.
Each student had his own exhibition stand and their photos were breathtaking as guests kept asking questions on how the photos were taken and the inspiration behind the shots and the techiniques used. There was good response from the exhibiting students and they also granted interviews to journalists on ground.
At the end of the exhibition, Babatunde Alabi one of the exhibiting students gave the vote of thanks and this was closely followed by group photos featuring the exhibiting students with staff, students of the institution and other invited guests.
