The creation of programmes for professional training of Nigerian journalists and media workers is recommended, however there must be institutional changes in order for that training to be effective. The structure of appointing managerial staff at federal and state broadcasters should be reviewed so as to create distance from the government in power and grant the federal and state owned media greater editorial independence. The public service model should be strongly considered as a basic template for guaranteeing the basic principles of public interest and editorial integrity.
