The Southeast National Vice President, Comrade Emeka Kalu disclosed this when he led a delegation of the Southeast leadership of RATTAWU to a courtesy call on the Managing Director/Chief Executive Officer of Anambra Broadcasting Service, ABS, Chief Uche Nworah in his office at Awka.

Disclosing the aim of their visit, Comrade Kalu said that because the history of RATTAWU in the Southeast zone cannot be told without mentioning ABS as the hallmark of the entire Union, they chose ABS as the venue for their meeting to set up local organising committee for the conference.

Giving the theme of the conference as “Media and Culture Sector, the Hallmark of National Integration and Development”, Comrade Kalu said because RATTAWU is one of the largest unions for media and cultural workers in Nigeria, they intend to showcase the rich cultural heritage of the Southeast zone at the weeklong event.
