Reputable online news platform Sahara Reporters,
has bombed the Nigerian Army, calling them a
petty organisation with generals who specialise in
deploying troops to attack the news organisation
on twitter.
In an exclusive chat with the publisher of the
news organisation Omoyele Sowore, the New York
based publisher told The Paradigm that he his
not surprised the army has resorted to name
calling.
The Nigerian Army had earlier accused Sahara
Reporters of working with the deadly Boko Haram
terrorist group.

Dismissing the allegation, Sowore said “the US
Government was similarly accused of working for
Boko Haram for refusing to sell helicopters to the
Nigerian Army.
“The Nigerian Army has been reduced to a petty
organization, the other day they deployed their
men chasing after newspaper delivery vans across
Nigeria because some were critical of their
handling of the anti-terrorism fight.
Mr. Sowore further said that “Since they can’t
find or arrest our copies, they’ve resorted to
cheap blackmail.
“The content of the petition clearly speaks to how
Boko Haram could be defeated, states why they
haven’t been defeated.
“The petition indicted senior military officers
including stating how a GOC was diverting money
and food, and also building a mansion in Kaduna.
But instead of investigating and acting on the
content of the petition, the military hierarchy is
engaging in subterfuge and deflecting public
attention from the real issues.

“We join the long line of conscientious watchdogs
branded by the Nigerian authorities for saying and
reporting the truth,” Sowore told The Paradigm.
While speaking with this reporter, Sowore said
that “The Nigerian Army needs to return to being
a serious and respectable fighting force in Africa
not an organization of generals whose only skills
are limited to deploying troops to fight dirty on
Twitter”.

Watching

Reputable online news platform Sahara Reporters

This is an insult to practitioners of Real Journalism. Sahara Reporters are no where near Reputable. They are a junk news website.

NA are now toothless bulldogs, can't de just face their job of securing our nation and stop this chitti chatta wif news organization

That is the way the current administration under GEJ has reduced our military to ordinary boys scout. My prayers everyday is for Nigeria to avoid external aggression from other countries because our military can't defend us. We will be killed and our territory taken over from us.

The Nigeria Army forgot they can never fight the media.

Too bad. And the same pettiness has now infected the SSS as well. What a shame.

Every known ministry and parastatals become worthless under the watch of Jonathan.

EFCC and ICPC are like jokers running after honest self made millionaires.
