The Nigeria Union of Journalists (NUJ) FCT Council is set to recognise Mrs Moji Danisa with the “Trailblazer in Tabloid Journalism Award” for her outstanding contributions to the media sector.

According to a press release signed by Secretary of Council Comrade Jide Oyekunle and made available to penpushers online media notes that Moji is been recognized as “a hard-hitting investigative journalist, television presenter, producer, scriptwriter, and documentist. Also, that she has consistently pushed the boundaries of tabloid journalism with courage and professionalism.

The reads in part; “Rising quickly through the ranks to become a sub-editor and later leading her own media ventures, Moji has demonstrated exceptional leadership and innovation in storytelling that resonates widely with the public”

“Her work is characterised by fearless reporting and a commitment to uncovering truths that matter, making her a respected figure in Nigerian journalism.

“Beyond journalism, Moji’s entrepreneurial spirit has earned her prestigious awards, reflecting her influence both inside and outside the newsroom.

“Her ability to blend investigative rigor with popular appeal has set new standards in tabloid journalism, inspiring a generation of journalists to pursue impactful, audience-centered reporting.

According to the statement “This award recognizes Moji Danisa not only as a pioneer but as a queen of the craft—someone who has transformed tabloid journalism into a powerful platform for truth, entertainment, and social change”

When cornered, the amiable penpusher had this to say; “This just humbled me. Oh wow I’m tearing up. Thanks so much. An award coming from a profession I gave my ALL is the most important award ever!

“First ever award that made me jump, was one from my allumi, The Nigerian Institute of Journalism, when I was conquering new territories with tabloid Journalism. Coming from the institution that moulded me, was truly an honour. I was just 28yrs old.

“Then AIT sent me to the TV College Jos where my testimonial described me as an asset to any Organisation. I have received so many awards in the cause of my career but this is the most humbling of them all.
“I’m super touched. Many thanks to the dynamic, vibrant, truth seeking, transparent, EXCO of the NUJ FCT, led by Comrade Grace Ike, a trail blazer and the most honest, humble, patient, woman I know, who’s not self seeking but full of integrity, common sense and firmness. God bless you all”
