Co-founder of Newswatch magazine and ace journalist, Mr Ray Ekpu on Monday 6th August 2018, celebrated his 70th birthday and 45 years of being a journalist par excellence.
His birthday was marked with a colloquium tagged “Nigeria: The Leadership Question”, which was put together in his honour to interrogate leadership challenges in Nigeria, a topic very dear to his heart.
