Sahara reporters is a name on the lips of every Nigerian who follows happenings on the internet. It's no gain saying that this media house has been the spear head of an independent and professional reportage which has since been its hallmark and modus operandi since its inception.
Sahara reporters blaze the trail in investigative journalism, exclusive interviews, insights and lots of breaking news (which is exclusive to it).
But sadly, this source of information (a total deviation) from the past has come under harmer from different angles for varying reasons which is mostly political. Many people have criticized this online medium for biasness, deceit, and lies. In fact some people have tagged it an APC propaganda tool, a boko haram media wing etc.

Actually, you might not agree with Sahara reporters 100%(I personally don't too), but the undisputable fact is that, it deserves commendation rather than condemnation, it has done more good than harm and has exposed the corruption, bad governance etc and its perpetrators across board in our nation. This online media has stood with Nigerians in difficult times and have successfully aided in defending the ideals, ethics, and ethos of democracy that we currently enjoy in this country.

It's on record that, this news media defended Jonathan during the late president yaradua's saga, they informed Nigerians of the true state of health of the then president, and how it was been politicized by some people. They made sure, that the doctrine of necessity was passed and subsequently utilized which was instrumental in making GEJ, acting president before been sworn in as president. They were also not deterred during the subsidy protest, as they made Nigerians understand the true state of matters which eventually led to the status quo not been maintained by the F.G till date.

It's difficult to say, but sahara reporters have been a sort of whistle blower, or otherwise referred to as Nigeria's wikileaks with its exclusive news, that most at times turn out to be true. That's why it's saddening to see people accuse them without facts. Most corruption cases which would have been left unattended to, was brought to the fore by them.

We can't easily forget the case of former aviation minister Stella Oduah, it was this news media that told the whole world, the stories behind the stories. They were able to unravel the fact that, she was embezzling the nation's funds to buy bullet proof cars, and also siphoning our money for personal use. When that news broke, some people doubted it, resorted into accusations as usual, but at last Sahara reporters was vindicated and today we all know who really had Nigerian interest at heart.

The story of the first lady also comes to mind. When she traveled to Germany and was seriously ill according to them. Most people faulted this with the presidency releasing a statement to disregard it and blamed them for their biased reportage. Months after the incident, when the first lady in a thanksgiving service told the nation that she was almost dead, but that only God saved her life. Again, Sahara reporters was vindicated.


About a year ago, it was reported that Nigeria's delegation to the UN was about 600, with the president traveling with people who had no business whatsoever over there. In fact, they went on to report that, our delegation is the highest to the annual conference. As usual, it was not believed as the presidency through Reuben Abati refuted this claim, but rather suggested that the president traveled with a few ministers and aides, and that anybody apart from v those mentioned was doing so, solely on their own. Just about two weeks ago, the v new minister of foreign affairs came out publicly to corroborate their report, indicating that indeed Nigeria truly had that large number in the conference last year. Again, Sahara reporters was also proven beyond reasonable doubt.

Just a few days ago, the news broke indicting the CAN president of ownership of a jet which was seized in south Africa for stacking about $10 million meant to buy arms and ammunitions. As soon as Sahara reporters broke the news, some people went wide to disprove it, insinuating that it was all lies. But, alas just that same day the CAN president agreed to the fact that he owned the jet, though he stated that he's already leased it out. Again, the critics of Sahara reporters were silenced.

In fact I can go on and on.


Finally, let me state once again that I personally commend this Nigeria's whistle blower for a job well done so far. It's also necessary that all well meaning Nigerians do so, support this online media especially as we approach the 2015 elections, because those who are against the progress of this nation will do all possible to silence them, start a campaign of calumny against them, and will also try to paint them black.


On this note, i urge us all to be at alert at this critical period in our nation's history, let's not be hoodwinked into thinking that Sahara reporters is all about lies, let's all be on the lookout for exclusive reports from them especially as the true perpetrators of Boko haram are been brought to the fore, don't allow anyone to disprove their news without facts, and let's be among those who commend and not condemn them because they truly deserve it.

Thanks bro, we wait for those who accuse them falsely to also do so with facts.

Only eternal fools condemn saharareporters. Even when abati and co lies, it's on record that saharareporters will tell us the truth. An example was when we were told that shepo went to Germany to rest but sheepo later confirmed that she indeed died in Germany but came back to life. SR isn't perfect like any other media organisations but they are surely better than our other options.
These eternal fools that condemn SR will instead want us believe miserable dailies like......
Thisday.......Nduka paper....pdp man.
Tribune.......remnants of pdp paper in SW.
Sun......ibo paper.....jonaadaft cocck suckers
NTA........pathetic fools.
Etc.

How much did they pay to you?

Why didn't you use Boko Broadcasting Company BBC or Criminal News Network(CNN) OR the Voice Of Abo.kis (VOA)

ls the death of your masters Journalist now affecting ur propaganda business?

What will Ur Western and Nigerian Boko Haram Sponsors say with this weak damage control u are attempting?

No mind those people jare, all they know is to badmouth and quick to make silly conclusions.
Even when the issue of the jet and SA occurred, some of them had the guts to say it's all lies and that it's impossible.
But when it was confirmed they were dumbfounded as usual and resorted to other name callings.

But, we are really watching..

i like Sahara reporters though they are majorly after political issues which brews some sort of discontents.

Mr man if you don't have something better to say than to resort in to this petty style of response, I must tell you that, you're really on a long thing. Because if I start my own Hmmmm.

Sealeddeal: i like Sahara reporters though they are majorly after political issues which brews some sort of discontents.

This might be due to the fact that, they are more politically inclined. But, one thing you can not take away from them is their whistle blowing reportage which is second to none in Nigeria.

What are you guys trying to insinuate. Did you think I won't respond to you. You're the ones that need to make comments and your opinions known here. As far as I know, all what you guys have resorted to is to twist the points raised without facts or ask me already answered questions. If you feel my opinion is false, why not point to them here and let's start from there, rather than name callings which doesn't portray you as someone ready to discuss.
For the umpteenth time, respond to the issues raised above or you keep quiet forever.
Anything apart from that, I won't respond anymore.
Peace.
