The Nigeria Union of Journalists (NUJ), FCT Council, has received a significant boost toward the completion of its Ultramodern Congress Hall project, following the donation of 600 bags of cement by indigenous firm, Bespoke Urban Luxury Limited
At a brief handover ceremony in Abuja supervised by Arc Junias John Akaito and Kolade Oluwajuwkn Olaoye, the company delivered the first tranche of 300 bags, marking what stakeholders described as a major milestone in the Council’s drive to provide a befitting edifice for journalists in the nation’s capital.
Receiving the materials, Chairman of the NUJ FCT Council, Comrade Grace Ike, lauded the CEO of Bespoke Urban Luxury Limited Dr Christain Olatunji for identifying with the media community and investing in infrastructure that will strengthen journalism practice and professional engagement.
She described the donation as both timely and strategic, noting that the proposed congress building would serve as a hub for professional development, welfare coordination, training, and constructive engagement between journalists and key stakeholders.

The NUJ FCT Council is committed to building a functional Congress Hall that will serve as a centre for training, innovation, and the overall welfare of our members,” she said.
Comrade Ike assured the donor of transparency and accountability in the utilisation of the materials, reiterating the Council’s determination to deliver a project that would stand the test of time.
“We are resolute in completing this project for the benefit of journalists in Abuja and generations to come. Partnerships like this move us closer to realizing that vision,” she added.
Representatives of Bespoke Urban Luxury Limited said the CEO’s intervention Dr Christain Olatunji was inspired by the critical role the media plays in national development and democratic consolidation.
According to the company, supporting the building project aligns with its corporate social responsibility commitment to community growth and institutional capacity building.
