There was space for band sets, praise singers and uniformed group but there was no space for Journalists. How can you organise that kind of event without making provisions for Journalists? Sounds very ridiculous and stewpid!!! |

I think the Journalists took it for granted that they will be given free pass in but didn't bother to get security clearance or their names included in the list of accredited guest. They should learn from this to always liase with security protocol. 2 Likes |

They should learn from this to always liase with security protocol.What security protocol thrash are you talking here. Did journalists covering of presidential functionaires start with this Akwa Ibom episode or haven't you noticed that GEJ has dictatorial leanings. |

They may not want the journalists to witness first hand information on the trash that usually characterize his speeches when ever he appears in public. The journalists should not border as an edited statement will be send to them in due course. |

erniok:Dont be silly. The point i was mking was that d journalists that were not allow in were most probably Akwa ibom basd journalists who got their accreditatn messd up. If you know anything bout presidential ffs, u wud hardly be allowd into a ff afta d President has bn seatd Or if there is even a zinch wit yr accreditatn; very many 'big men'(governors, traditional rulers,diplomats etc) hv bn 'embarrasd' cos of dis. If d security details of d President feels u are nt accredictd or dat u are late, they wud nt allow u in no mata who u are or hw much u complain; i presume dis wud be even more pursued cos of d current security challenges in d country...there is really nothing here, i dont know why i even commentd on dis thread |

You guys have no idea of what Akpabio stands for.Akpabio is only a noise maker who wants to be addressed as a performer.He wouldnt want to be exposed by the visiting journalists who would like to verify all those stupid comments he makes about the so-called uncommon transformation.He would not like the journalists to expose the fact that workers salaries are sometimes unpaid for over three months.The guy is just a good noise maker. |

Maybe the journalists should have turned up as praise singers or even market women, they would have sailed in no problem. |

[quote author=Akan]Maybe the journalists should have turned up as praise singers or even market women, they would have sailed in no problem. Funny, but actually very true. The best way for journalists to get full gist is always to go undercover. Unfortunately, not many of our journalists have mastered that art :-/ 1 Like |
