Speaking on the theme “Expanding Media Knowledge for Better Information Management In The Niger Delta Region”, Prof. Barclays Ayakoroma advocated participatory media action that will enable citizens to access, critically analyse and interpret media contents, which will help to build confidence and guard against fake news.
