In a BBC interview Muhammadu Buhari not (Mohamed Buhari) have justified heavy crackdown on the media. He maintained that the media could be a distraction to government, even if they are reporting the truth.

Asked, what if the media is reporting the truth about a corrupt government official?. He maintained such media house must be cautioned, if it's a distraction to government. Affected media houses will include newspapers, TV stations, radio stations. And in this day of social media where we get information at the speed of light sites such as Facebook, twitter, Nairaland, badoo, skype, linkedin, BBM, e.t.c would not be an exemption. He have already petitioned the NTA and AIT for speaking their mind, details at http://sunnewsonline.com/new/?p=102766 .You can then imagine what he will do, if he becomes president.

I hail o! Buhari will even ban breathing.

He can't smell the gate of Aso Rock, talkless of banning Facebook, Twitter etal

You dey craze joor

Many people won't have reasons to buy smart phones again...lol.. Buhari if you actually said this, then you no try..

Don't be ancient jor...

.he will even ban orijin and oh mpa.

Because be can't use them?

Now this is really disturbing if he actually said this. One of the elements of democracy is free press. I don't see why a working government should be really worried over what the press says. At the end of the day the truth will be out there irrespective...

For those pushing for change, without splitting of hairs here, please understand what all your "saviour" has been saying, weigh them carefully and consider the repercussions before you leap.




Vote don't fight.

GMB please ban Twitter, Facebook, Eskimi and Skype...
But please don't ban livescores.com and orijin...

he is already threatening to take AIT to court

imagine if he has the power to jail them?

If this is true, then I must say he's just as clueless and confused as his homeboy Jona.

See another propaganda......
Well, let him ban them because am okay will nairaland.Abi him go ban NL also?

Thank God say I don decide ....
GMB till Jona accept state by state debate.

.

Wuna no get sense.

And it turns out this ended up being the case...

Youths with poor sense of history are the problem for Nigeria. None can dissect issues properly. The hand writing was clear on the wall before this mannequin got to Aso rock, but bandwagon effect got better of them.


I will tell my children and grandchildren that I rejected this cow herder that ended up destroying what was left of the giant of Africa.
