A society is a self sustaining entity if it has all its components functioning as expected. It has the executive to provide it with leadership and fix necessary transformation in it to make life meaningful. It equally has the legislature to make laws to guide the behavior of people and provide basis where infringement can be claimed at yet another stratum, the judiciary. This important group of people in the society as learned as they are, provides interpretation to the laws kept in the society and prescribe punishments to the offenders.

There is no need stressing the notion that a society with functional information apparatus is well formed socio-politically, economically, educationally and religiously thus creating the fourth estate of the realm, the Press.
The major function of the press in the societal arrangement and management is more of a middle person. It watches over the society. It praises when ideals are pursued and brought to bear for the betterment of all by authorities concerned and point out the fall when priority attention is denied to things necessary to enhance the well being of members of the public. At various times, it sets agenda for the government to pursue.

If the fourth realm of this society, the press compromise on this assignment, the consequence can only be imagined but should not be experienced. It is like a watchman spying for devil's emissaries at the expense of the victim.

While we are not attempting to bring the practice in Akwa Ibom in particular and Nigeria in general to disrepute and indictment, we dare to say that a lot has been left undone or either done in a way that causes harm to the society.

Much has happened and some unnoticed and uncorrected because the media, either by commission or omission fail to give the necessary attention to such issues. Not that those things, if brought to the fore, cannot upgrade our society, but that there can be pointed cases of either attachment or detachment that can indict the profession.

Global Concord Newspaper shall not only go to those areas that none of its comrades dare, but shall do so objectively, in-depth and in tune with the ethics of journalism and the society.

Our society needs this Concord and we answer “yes” to the call. You can rely on us for news on all aspect necessary for our societal growth.

We shall explore all segments of this society to do it better and we shall explore even you.
