There is absolutely no true democracy without press freedom and freedom of speech
That is a major difference between democracy and dictatorship
Re: You Can Ban The Press If They Will Embarrass A Public Officer - Buhari by Collynzo9: 4:59pm On Feb 01, 2015
According to APC plebs:
Buhari hates the press (confirmed), but the cannot restrict press freedom because we are in a democratic dispensation.
Buhari said he will do his best to make sure Sharia is applied all over Nigeria (confirmed), but he cannot succeed because we are in a democratic dispensation.
But these same people believe that Buhari can ''fight'' corruption in a democratic dispensation just as he did as military head of state. He will work with corrupt senators to remove the immunity corrupt of Governors and legislators to pave way for the arrests.
What delusion!
What hypocrisy!

I hope Nigerians know the "change" they want. Everything about this man seems wrong. From the visible hypocrisy on his face to the outright lies being sold to the public by his apologists, Nigeria would be on a long ride if he smells power.

What annoys me most are comments made by the ignorant ones down to the outright fools such as "we should try him first, then if he does not perform after 4 years we vote him out"... Like really Would you still have the avenue or opportunity to vote in 4 years time? Would it count?

Nothing beats freedom. If the people of Egypt, Libya, Tunisia, Syria, et al, could have predicted the future, they would not have shouted change! Them for manage Ghadaffi and dem Mubarak... See where the change put them now.

Same mistake is happening in Nigeria and typically, we don't learn from the past. Bringing in a man that contributed to the decadent country today, guided by his co-perpetrators (Obasanjo, Atiku, Babangida) using the mantra 'change' is a mockery of our intelligence.


@calebo101 you did not wirte this but God in heaven used your hand to pass this across. That same God will BLESS YOU AND YOUR FAMILY.

Hahahaha. You know Nigeria is such a beautiful country under President Jonathan that it is now about to welcome African Union troops to fight insurgents that should have been crushed by any decent leader.

Tell this your post to the Igbo people that topped individual donations to General Buhari's campaign. They must all be Muslims too. #Hehehehe

Another propaganda aimed at blinding Nigerians. I implore you all to watch the youtube video in its entirety. What you'll discover is that the general was basically attacked throughout the interview in an attempt to discredit him, first they said he can't speak English, next they said he has no certificate and now he's an enemy of the press, when will the propaganda stop? We all know about military rule, every military head state restricted the press at one point or the other but propagandist only see what they want to see. It would be cynical to believe that a Buhari in his 70s would exhibit the same autonomous control he had back in the military era. We are at the age of social media, huge international awareness, gone are the days of restricting the press. My advice to GEJ paid propagandist, talk about the serious issues facing the country, talk about GEJ's plans for us for the next four years and how it will be more effective than the years he's spent already. Time is running out, the wind of change is now full blown!

Also study about Hitler, he didn't enrich himself unnecessarily.
There are things that move men, GMB's own might not be money but absolute power which is more dangerous than being moved by money.

When I see youths shouting 'said buhari' for a 70+ years old man to become the president, I weep for this nation.

Maybe after Buhari, Babangida, After Babangida, Danjuma, after Danjuma, Shagari, after Shagari, Gowon...

hopelessness!

The worst of GEJ is better than the best of GMB.

We have actually experienced both men in power before. Under President Jonathan, Nigeria is under attack and cannot defend itself effectively. This is the fundamental duty of government, under General Buhari, we didn't have such a problem.

So, don't try to make it look as if you have new information for us.

Say what you like about Buhari. We know he is upright. If banning press will make him fix Nigeria. So be it! Press freedom does not put food on the common man's table. Lest you forget, under his regime, $1=N2 and he never borrowed a kobo from foreign creditors.

We love GMB!

"Buhari enslaved the nation. He gloated and gloried in a Master-slave relation to the millions of its inhabitants. It is astonishing to find that the same former slaves, now free of their chains, should clamour to be ruled by one who not only turned their nation into a slave plantation, but forbade them any discussion of their condition" - Wole Soyinka.

They cannot because he is losing on that basis, they can only use things like this to try to make Nigerians fear General Buhari and keep our dear incapable President in power.

Of course, this how the President and his supporters think. Ask yourself if a country can continue to be run like this and not collapse from decay and decadence.

We have existing laws, we sure do. President Buhari will not manufacture laws from the mars nor use executive fiat. You should be more concerned with ethical journalism and the provisions of relevant laws rather than this position you are holding. In every profession there is code of conduct, in journalism we have BON, we have Press Council these two bodies regulate the practice of Journalism as established by the law. We also have Private Associations, all these groups are against unethical practice. See, I will never side illegality, we should be sincere and not emotional. Where were you when Jonathan banned Aljazeera from Nigeria? Where were you when Israel banned PressTV? Where were you when Uk suspended PressTV? Where were you? You have to be sincere. Journalist must be ethical or be made to face the law. No one stop them from doing their jobs, they must do so ethically.











is aljazeera own by a nigerian?

Excellent! If you know the sponsor of terrorism and insurgency in Nigeria, then President Jonathan too should know. It just proves he is an incapable leader if he cannot arrest and bring to justice such people.

No need for stories, we only need action.
