Kogi State Mourns Loss of Media Icon Prof. Tom Adaba

The Kogi State Government has expressed a huge sense of loss following the demise of Prof. Tom Adaba, a pioneering broadcast expert, patriot, and distinguished son of Kogi. Prof. Adaba, who passed away at the age of 83, was celebrated for his trailblazing contributions to Nigeria’s media landscape.

Prof. Adaba’s legacy is marked by groundbreaking achievements. He was one of the first Nigerians to earn a Doctorate in Mass Communication, setting a high standard for academic excellence in the field. His visionary leadership was evident during his tenure as the Principal of the Nigerian Television College, Jos, and as the inaugural Director General of the National Broadcasting Commission. His work not only transformed the media industry but also laid a strong foundation for ethical journalism and responsible broadcasting across the nation.

In an official condolence message signed by the State Information Commissioner, Mr Kingsley Fanwo, the Kogi State Government described Prof. Adaba as “a media colossus, patriot, and a distinguished Nigerian” whose wisdom and dedication left an indelible mark on the country. The government extended heartfelt condolences to his family, friends, and the entire media community, urging that his legacy be remembered as a beacon of inspiration.

The statement reads: “We have lost a great media pioneer whose life-long contributions to Nigeria’s broadcasting industry will forever be cherished. May the Almighty God grant him eternal rest and give his loved ones the strength to bear this irreparable loss.”

Prof. Adaba’s passing is not only a significant loss to Kogi State but also to Nigeria as a whole. His illustrious career and unwavering patriotism will continue to inspire future generations in the realms of media and beyond.
