The Imo State chapter of the Sports Writers Association of Nigeria (SWAN) will hold a seminar on Ethics in Sports Journalism in conjunction with its general convention in Owerri on Tuesday, April 14, 2026.

In a statement jointly signed by its president, Cosmos Chukwuemeka, and secretary, Tunde Liadi, the association said the seminar was themed “Balancing truth and fairness: ethical responsibilities in sports journalism”.

The statement adds that the session will be delivered by former SWAN President, Fan Ndubuoke, who is also a former Chairman of the Imo State Sports Commission and former head of the Imo State Football Association.
