doctokwus: It's not totally out of place for Satan to have his adent followers but what is worrisome is when those followers pretend to be angels. In the light of this, one wonders how anybody in his right sense would still see Sahara Reporters as a respectable site when its activities in recent times have been nothing but deceits, mischief, subversion of truth, promotion of Boko haram, character assasination, despise of the military and other institutions, heating up of the polity and promotion of opposition agenda. In trying to play down Omokri's explanaton on his itenary on the day of the crime, you trumped up a possible alibi. You are wrong on this because SR indeed said he was physically present at the scene. So why are you trying to project an online medium that's fast loosing its popularity and respect? 2 Likes |

I'm really shocked by some of the comments posted here. What's wrong is wrong and the truth will remain what it's despite the personality or circumstance. We must learn to focus on the issues and not personalities. Whether, it's buhari or jonathan we must be ready to stand up for the truth and be bold enough to confront falsehood wherever its comes. If a false report is out there whether on Jonathan or Buhari, we must come together and condemn such. Truly what goes around, comes around and we need to be very careful. Nothing can turn a lie into a truth and Sahara reporters has failed to stand up for what they vehemently condemn in others. The publication stinks to high heaven in term of deliberate falsehood and malicious reportage to tarnish the reputable of many individuals. The impact of their reportage on the country is worse, the destruction to our hard earn reputation as a nation cannot be estimated. They have lost all sense of professionalism and reduced journalism to speculation, hearsay and sensationalism. They have thrown ethics to the rubbish bins that no individual with high moral standing can allow itself to be associated with such low life junk publication outfit. This issue is beyond the govt of today, the opposition or coming election. Kindly, take an objective review of their online publications and find out the main motive for such publications. Is it for the upliftment of the society or destruction? or Is it to promote harmony among the people or set them against one another? I implore you to take a critical review of their publications. The main purpose of Journalism is the dissemination of information in an unbaised and professional manner for the well-being and development of the society. But, sahara's main purpose is simply to incite the people through misinformation, lies, speculations and propaganda. They come across as a group filled with hate and animosity. Please let be guided by justice, equity and fair play. Sahara cannot stand the test of time; it was build on lies and falsehood and will aso crumble with its originators and sponsors. 3 Likes |

@ OP Ochejoseph caselessogbuagu:nairaland.com have been a place I have come to enjoy news from the mother land with people of open mind. The Alibi are all people Reno could use his office to bring "badluck" on, if Reno "Wendell" believe in justice the the court system he has access to the USA judiciary system let him fill a law suit against SR in the States. The foundation he mentioned that are funding SR, this organisations have apparatus in place to vet who they fund, each before finding every organization they fund passes through a very rigorous process they are not an institution run by the likes of petroleum minister or Doyin Okupe etc. Why do we always hide behind religion and church to camouflage our ill words. Reno is dealt wit h the same medicine he spoons out to others, my man Reno"Wendell" Omokeri open your mouth and swallow like a bitch. Oche Joseph na idoma man you be and we stand by the truth. Don't let Reno lie to you about his where about, you see when you have an instrument you could utilize such as the judicial system in the states in which you could sue SR but rather cry like a bitch on social media something is fishing. Oche let Reno go down on his own... |

When Sahara first came, it was credible, but for now, you cant rely on most stories can came from there. It has gradually metaphosed into a bias unpire. |

Babaneh: Umaru Dikko that ran to London in 1985, Buhari sent Israeli security to package him into crate and extradite him before some other hiding looters informed the London airport authority then, if not Umaru Dikko would have gotten something like 5000 years imprisonment. SO, if you know someone who knows Omokri, FFK, Doyin-okuigbe, AYo Fayose, Asari Dokubo, Edwin Clarke, Deizani Alisson-Maduekwe, Stella Oduah and other thieves, better advise them to as soon as Buhari is announced as President and C-in-C, the looters should just go and hand themselves over at the nearest police station. This may make Buhari to reduce their imprisonment to just 500 years instead of the expected 5,000 years imprisonment. If they try to run to oyinbo land, the people's General shall give them the Umaru Dikko treatment and when they are finally extradited back to Nigeria. Their expected 5,000 years imprisonment shall be increased to 10,000 years. If you think that I am joking, ask Jim Nwobodo that sole money not enough to buy Peugeot (apology to our president), Buari gave him 201 years imprisonment. Now compare Deizani Alisson-Maduekwe that stole and is still stealing money that can buy executive jets, her sentence is 99,000 years imprisonment. 2 Likes 1 Share |

I was listening to aljazeera online streaming program yesterday about one African govt surpressing press freedom and there were a lot of comments portraying that govt as overly high handed. That kind of decision or action is what you get when quack reporters or media establishments do not hold themselves accountable to what they dish out to the public in the name of reporting. Many are just in the business of "disinformation " or simply they are propaganda machines. I think govts should look at this seriously. Information available to the populace should be looked at critically. Too much information kills not to talk of false ones.. Every online news establishment should have a registered office in the country they service and abide by rules of the game or have the site blocked from the public. They won't try that in China or Russsia. Enemies of the country are using some of these media to destroy the country's social and political framework. Would they even try it with the so called buhari. Even people like Shoyinka ran to save his dear life under some govts in this country. Uganda abi kenya appropraitely labelled them terrorists. Yes that is what sahara reporters are-terrorists. Even the USA that likes to be seen as protective of press freedom went all out against wiki leaks. The business of govt should be taken seriously cos it is a sensitive matter. |

ddeola:you are right but they may be unaware of the damage the group they give grants to are causing. Many people or NGOs will write to donor agencies and paint a very nice picture of how their work will benefit the nation. How they are the messiah that will turn things around. Later. Whether to remain relevant or to satisfy the demands of other people mostly oppositions or even personalities within the donor agencies or donor country, they will begin to write their scripts. From just looking around mentally, many of the persons or agencies I know who get grants from Ford Foundation are mostly anti govt. That's a fact. You know Nigerians, they go to oyinbo and paint a very bad picture of the reality and those ones will be moved to help the so called minority being oppressed by the all powerful govt. Everyday agents of propanganda media houses all over the world are running to Uk to portray themselves as the last of a dying breed. Yet Channels is selling news here and are accommodated. AIT as an organization is divorced from the orientation of their founding fathers. |

doctokwus:My brother fear God. You admit SR may not be accurate yet you agree they're reliable. How reliable are consistent inaccuracies aimed at character assassination? Who should be held responsible when the media gets it wrong? We're quick at pouring invectives at our opponents for their inaccuracies but what about the media? should we just pardon and overlook them because they published damaging lies against our opponent? Where should we draw the line between journalism and outright tyranny? While Omokiri may be who you all love to hate as the opposition, I believe he has a right to seek redress if he feels injured. SR should be more responsible for the information they publish. Media terrorism is worse than Boko Haram because consistent mass misinformation can only create a skewed ideology, and a skewed ideology gives birth to a skewed society. |

simpleseyi:Unfortunately a Nigerian Living in the US said this about our young people education and employment. NIGERIAN GRADUATES ARE SMART AND INTELLIGENT. UNFORTUNATELY THEY LACK A CAPACITY TO THINK FOR THEMSELVES THUS THEY COULD NEVER BE RELIED UPON AS PROBLEM SOLVERS. THEIR EDUCATION TRAINED THEM TO FOLLOW THE TREND THAT'S WHY THEY MAKE GOOD SUBORDINATES LIKE CLERKS AND ASSISTANTS THEY WERE NEVER GROOMED FOR LEADERSHIP. |
