Vote 4 d female presidential candidate then smiley

I would go with the whole of my family and sleep in the ballot station if someone like late Dora Akunyili should contest election for president. The only persons that would have my votes are Oshomole and Akpabio. One more if you chose to contest for president email me or reply me and you would have my support. Have a great day.

Drafted on March 29,1984, Decree No. 4 was the most dreaded, most repressive and the last press law enacted in Nigeria. It was promulgated during the military regime of Major General Buhari which did not take kindly to press criticisms.

The law was drafted to punish authors of false statements and reports that exposed the Buhari administration and or its officials to ridicule or contempt.
Section 1, sub-sections (i), (ii) and (iii) of the law - the most formidable section - provided that:
Any person who publishes in any form, whether written or otherwise, any message,rumour, report or statement, being a message, rumour, statement or report which is false in any material particular or which brings or is calculated to bring the Federal Military Government or the Government of a state or public officer to ridicule or disrepute, shall be guilty of an offence under this Decree.

Any station for wireless telegraphy which conveys or transmits any sound or visual message, rumour, report or statement, being a message, rumour, report or statement which is false in any material particular or which brings or is calculated to bring the Federal Government or the Government of a state or a public officer to ridicule or disrepute, shall be guilty of an offence under this Decree.

It shall be an offence under this Decree for a newspaper or wireless telegraphy station in Nigeria to publish or transmit any message, rumour, report or statement which is false in any material particular stating that any public officer has in any manner been engaged in corrupt practices or has in any manner comiptly enriched himself or any other person {Gazette, 1984).

Nigerians say GEJ is a weak President cos
they are used to a military rule that is
characterised by
dictatorship,bellicosity,aggression,war-
mongering,man-handling,etc.
The psychological effect that a military
regime left in our lives is still impacting
on us hence,GEJ's government is termed
weak.
You do not expect a civil individual with
the highest level of education to rule like
an illiterate soldier or an ex-soldier in
civilian attire.
their psyche has been battered by decades of military dictatorship by koboko whipping and vindictive generals and ex generals..I can understand where they are coming from, anything apart from koboko-whipping them into line is termed weak..civility has eluded them decades ago, hence the rampant jungle justice system practiced on the streets all around the nation....there was a country indeed.

The fact that you would even refer to the half-baked, impoverished, truth-twisting semi-literates that are responsible for news in Nigeria an 'educated' press is an insult to the likes of Al jazeera's Peter Greste and Barnaby Phillips or CNN's Anderson Cooper.

Anyone who doesn't want to be insulted should avoid politics like a plague.

Chances are your decisions will be anathema to some groups of people....so you either face reality or back out!
you didn't even put criticism. Insult?! When did insulting others become one of the ways of turning things around?! As a matter of fact voicing or writing/posting insults against another shows a lack of manners, social etiquette, aptitude for a beneficial social discourse, potential for making meaningful contributions in matters of development..above all it portrays an individual as a nitwit!
Vent constructive criticisms, not mindless useless insults!...

this proves nothing malicious.

The decree was SPECIFICALLY targeting those who spread FALSE news about government offivials or government.

In fact, we should add such to our constitution so those lazy 20 kobo journalists that publish whatever news the highest bidder wishes Nigerians to read can sit up.

We need factual news, the likes that have been thoroughly investigated before being published, not the useless akara sellers gossip that passes as news in our tabloids
not malicious ke shocked shocked shocked

Mr man there is no need for meaningful criticism when a leader is stealing the country blind all that such a leader deserves is curses!

So you are telling me that someone who is obviously stealing from all sources should be pampered and praised for doing such disservice to his fatherland?.

#FACT. So true


From observation, you'd seldom see citizens of other Nations openly criticise their President on social media. It's SO rare...(NSA or not) But, in Nigeria?? Almost every Dick and Harry does that...on Twitter, Facebook, Nairaland etc It's such an unpleasant thing to do. The Office of the President need be respected, regardless.


Really, no thanks to APC loyalists. They have used the most unprintable vocabulary on GEJ. It's a shameful act..and it just doesn't speak well of them if all they see in GEJ is 'cluelessness'.

Is there any fainted shallow reason why you'd think a president steals from its country?
