Abuja – The Nigerian Guild of Editors NGE has announced a shift of its All Nigeria Editors Conference ANEC 2025 to November 12-13, 2025. The Guild said President Bola Ahmed Tinubu will still declare the conference open on November 12, 2025 as Special Guest of Honour in Abuja.
In a press statement by Eze Anaba and Onuoha Ukeh, President and General Secretary respectively, the NGE said the change of date was due to circumstances beyond its control. The media body apologised to its members, all invited guests and the general public for the inconvenience the change of date may cause them.
“The Standing Committee of the Nigerian Guild of Editors NGE regrets to inform members, invited guests and the general public that due to circumstances beyond its control, the All Nigeria Editors Conference ANEC 2025 has been shifted to November 12-13, 2025. The venue remains the same Abuja,” the statement read.
“We sincerely apologise for the inconvenience this change of date may cause you. We promise that despite the change of date, the ANEC 2025 would be a credible platform to discuss and proffer solutions to issues pertaining to national development and cohesion.”
The theme of the conference remains: “Democratic Governance and National Cohesion: The Role of Editors,” with sub-theme as: “Electoral Integrity and Trust Deficit: What Nigerians Expect in 2027.”
The conference will feature keynote addresses, papers, and an executive session where editors will interrogate government officials, political and business leaders. The NGE said no fewer than 500 members are expected to converge on Abuja for the conference, designed to promote national development and cohesion through responsible and responsive journalism.
