BREAKING: Police Raid PREMIUM TIMES Head Office; Arrest Publisher, Journalist by Beta1: 7:00pm On Jan 19, 2017
The Nigeria police have raided PREMIUM
TIMES head office in Abuja, and arrested the
newspaper’s publisher.
The publisher, Dapo Olorunyomi, was
arrested alongside the paper’s judiciary
correspondent, Evelyn Okakwu.
Plain-clothed officers conducted search at the
office shortly after 5p.m. Thursday, and said
they were acting on a complaint filed by the
Chief of Army Staff, Tukur Buratai.
The arrests came days after PREMIUM TIMES
turned down the army’s demand to retract
news stories about the Nigerian Army and its
operations.
The paper’s Editor-in-Chief, Musikilu Mojeed,
condemned the raid.
“They should stop deluding themselves that
they can muzzle the press and intimidate
PREMIUM TIMES,” said Mr. Mojeed. “They
should know that our loyalty lies with our
readers and the Nigerian people who have a
right to know.”
He said the paper will continue “to discharge
its responsibilities in line with global best
practices, social responsibility and patriotism,
even at great risk to our personal liberties”.
More details later…

Whenever he wants to do a very dirty job, he will jump into the plane and start heading to one distant cold country while his papa ajsco lookalike DSS kingpin, Daurra runs amok... Osibande will then be left to carry the can over an issue he most probably wasnt allowed into the meeting where the decision was taken.. Thats what happens to you when you want to attache by force... Old school scam artist.. It is really only the gullible zombies that are still blind to the fact that buhari has taken Nigerias democracy 20 years backwards..


First it was Shara Reporters
Now it is Premium Times
It is over, Democracy and freedom of expression is DEAD and BURIED in Federal Republic of Nigeria under Buhari the tyrant.

Nigerians should expect more invasion and arrest to be made across churches , the judiciary , the press, opposition politicians , bureau de change operators and human rights activists during this Buhari fake vacation period.

That is the pattern of Buhari Government, Buhari planned vacation is a decoy to introduce many anti people policies like price increase, indiscriminate arrest and invasion of individuals and groups who are vocal to Buhari's Government and violation of rule of law.

Nigerians should expect the unexpected in the coming days throughout the duration of Buhari's vacation.

In the coming days Buhari will unleash the full weight of his tyrant and dictatorial agression on Nigerians during this his fake premeditated vaction period.

Zombies can quote me

We yoruba muslim know that Kanu is a fraud for calling our Buhari a tyrant who deserve never to reap from democracy.

We pray that everybody in premium times should be arrested include our fellow yoruba muslims who have forgotten that we must never attack our fulani masters like Buratai and Buhari. grin
