Fact To Show That Nigerian Mainstream Press Has Been Bought Over by yunfazz: 9:25am On Nov 29, 2013
it is so pathetic that this singular act of wickedness by a serving Governor meant to protect the rights, welfare, lives, businesses and conditions of the people he was elected to serve as their "Chief Servant" (please disregard the other governor that is just carrying the tag) but has turned to "Dictator in Chief" (DiC). If you missed the story, click https://www.nairaland.com/1534719/go-die-oshiomole-tells-widow

Going online this morning, apart from Sahara reporter, Nairaland, blogs, social media networks, no single mainstream or traditional media outfits carry this story to expose this act of wickedness to the common man on the street who does not have access to internet. Cant find on local TV stations either!

Assuming it is Oduah-gate, election rigging, GEJ scandals, or any other stories that is all about PDP, everywhere will be screaming with "tantalising" headlines, "investigative journalism" etc that the whole nation and even foreign media would be bought over and brainwashed!

When a lot of people thought APC is the better alternative to the PDP that have held us hostage for years, it is obvious that the country is in deep deep deep deep trouble (yes, i intentionally mention the word "deep" several times) with all the old generation parading themselves as "progressives", PDP Chieftains and political leaders

imagine the story of a Canadian mayor who was accused of smoking pot (not even caught red-handed), the whole media including CNN went berserk! As leaders, they are not supposed to be emperors but

Admitted that the woman maybe selling on the road or contravening laws to feed her family (most Nigerians use this as excuses to get sympathy) , but as true leader, there are ways Oshiomhole could have handled the situation without exposing his wickedness, cruelty and silliness (it is good anyway so we know the kind of leadership we have been voting for!).

Nigerian youths especially those who come on social media and forums to make ill-informed comments with the kind of cosmetic economies and edited propaganda these thieving leaders are selling us just for their selfish interest, We better watch it. Showing us hospitals, schools etc they have built, roads and toll-gates they are constructing, power generating stations they are commisioning or planning to do and so on all on media stations so that they tell the world how they are performing and we buying these hook, line and sinker.....Gosh!

How many times have you seen London mayor, California Governor, or Paris mayor showcasing all the spoons, cups, beverages, indomies or pizzas they bought for hospitals or schools in their constituents all over media outfits and stations.......yet, the same leaders will say that we should not compare Nigeria to develop countries but will only do so when it favour their selfish political interest by saying "thats is what is acceptable as global practice"

As a man, watching the video, didnt know when tears started rolling from my eyes.

Am sad!

You are not sad but mischievous .

Your message does not have good intention.

You people will complain of traffic and will still blame LASTMA officials when they arrest or tow a vehicle obstructing the road.
You will complain of road side selling and blame KIA officials when the arrest people on the road selling.
You will complain of dirtiness and uncleanness of our roads and streets compared to the advanced countries and still trow things on same road.

Blame the offender and not the enforcer of the law. Nigeria is like this today because we have not had people like Oshiomole in the past who will not look at your face in decision making.

Oshiomole's action may be wrong but the intention was ok.

You cannot eat your cake and have it at the same time
