In its quest to enable the media gain relevant knowledge of International Organisation for Standardisation (ISO) procedures, the Standards Organisation of Nigeria (SON) has announced plans to equip journalists with the requisite skills.
The Director General, SON, Mallam Farouk Salim, gave this hint during a media parley in Lagos recently.
He noted that the essence of the workshop was to appreciate the media and their contribution to the progress of the agency and the country in general.

“We are also using this medium to interact and discuss issues that bother both the media and the standards body,” he said.
On the level of seizures made so far, the SON boss said that its level of seizures has increased tremendously, maintaining that responses from stakeholders and market associations indicate that SON is winning the war against substandard goods.
