But the fake news is necessary right? You really want to underestimate the power of those publications and the damages? When government is busy trying to develope the state and attract investors, someone will sit somewhere to destroy all the efforts, why don't they investigate before publishing? We are proud to have a governor that pays attention to everything no matter how little. The Governor understands the implications of those publications. Let the journalists do their investigations properly.

They did not write anything that isn't happening. Is Lassa fever not killing people in droves there?

Don't Say that Aljazeera Journalist Hussein Mahmoud had been detained by Egyptian Government for 3years without trial.. he was allegedly for reporting fake news and giving forensic information about the Egyptian Government to third parties in exchange for money.. so many media outlets have campaign for his unconditional release but Got rejected.. Even when he lost his father, Aljazeera pleaded to Egyptian Government for his temporary release also got rejected..
Journalist should be beware and be careful of any news they wanted to report.
Government has power over it's Terrority.. Government can do and undo.
look the nonsense you just wrote... If Buhari had done this.. All vaginas will have been let loose.

To be honest this is a rather counterproductive measure.

Why not just ban the individual journalist/s who infringed on whatever anti-free speech laws existing in your state, than banning the whole publication?


He didn't ban the newspapers but the reporters. Even the topic of this thread said so.
You are too lazy to read and comprehend even the topic. Too bad!

Who are dey working for? Is it not their respective news media? They want to sell their paper by going beyond boundaries. The only covid-19 patient whose name circulated online is from Anambra state just because journalist can't keep off from their line and dey went and published the man name even when it is against NCDC rules and regulation. Bad journalism killing Nigeria from 1960

Look at the kind of bushman that is 'ruling' Ebonyi State.

And some Ebonyi boys liked the post and are defending the governor. After they will wonder why people think they are.......

I'm ashamed on their behalf.

This outburst is a very unnecessary one from the governor.

We are in a democracy and there are legitimate means of bringing errant journalists to book if they report falsehood.


The Gov. has no patience for journalists who want to write rubbish about his state so that their palms can be greased...

How does this man qualifies to be a governor. These are people trying to mull the press, imagine a governor inciting the public against men of the press. Imagine a governor saying a reporter is not from his state, and so? Isn't he a Nigerian.

A governor saying he got the whip. May God save this country in the hands of these arrogant looters.
My friend shut up.. Are you from Ebonyi? 95% of Ebonyi people love Umahi cos he did very well in Ebonyi state. Infact, the best performing governor. Some bad Belle's politicians are trying to soil the image of the government and that of Ebonyi people. Incase you have forgotten let me remind you "if you think you have the pen, we have the koboko"

This is so wrong.

The governor shouldn't allow his emotions get hold of him to this extent.

This will definitely haunt him later...or he'll later come out to apologize and do damage control

Someone that is leaving government soon is banning another person for life. As if he will be governor for life to enforce his ban.

Oga go and sleep and stop disgracing your state. We are in a democracy, not a military regime of kobo or whip

Autocracy at it peak.

So because they say things against your administration or you are against some things they said about you now means you should ban them.

The day you refuse to speak up when the matter arise is the day you remain silent forever.

Have it been proven to be a fake news? or is that anytime a journalist bring to fore what politicians wants to hide they will become bitter.

Well, he didn't at one point say that their reports were falsehood. Just that he didn't want all these to be exposed to the public. Shame
Re: Governor Umahi Bans The Sun, Vanguard Reporters From Ebonyi Govt House For Life by Angrymode: 9:59pm On Apr 22, 2020
He should just ban freedom of speech then.

Once you don't bend to will, you become the problem of the state.

Mumu governor with koboko

Fake news? Even the governor didn't call it fake news.
Re: Governor Umahi Bans The Sun, Vanguard Reporters From Ebonyi Govt House For Life by maasoap(m): 10:03pm On Apr 22, 2020
Umahi had last week Saturday ordered the arrest of The Sun Correspondent, Chijioke Agwu, over a report he did on the Lassa Fever outbreak in the state who was later released.
Three days later, Mr. Peter Okutu, was arrested on the orders of Ohaukwu LGA Chairman, Mr. Clement Odah, over a report he did on the alleged military invasion of Umuogodoakpu-Ngbo community in the council area. He has also been released.
β€œThe other one wrote that cholera has killed 20 people in Ohaukwu. If you try it again, I may not know when Ebonyians may react. This is important for the NUJ to know.

All these couldn't be lies. The governor was more interested in covering it up

To be honest, anyone who live in Ebonyi, particularly in the communities mentioned, knows that the reports were false and baseless. The said Chijioke Agwu contested for Ebonyi State House of Assembly for Onicha West Constituency and lost on the platform of APC. He shouldn't resort to fake information about his own state. Besides, his step brother of PDP has been made the co-ordinator of Ezeukwa Development Centre.

And why threatening them with violence because you don't like what they reported about.
