A Skeptic's Questions For Buhari Supporters by Succincts: 6:25pm On Feb 22, 2015
1. why do you prefer someone who repressed freedom of speech to someone who gave you FOI bill
2. How do you explain the fact that the same people who you accuse of destroying the country ie PDP are the same people who are now in APC. will they operate differently in their new party, dont you think that they will still carry their baggage into the new party.
3. Given Buhari's antecedents(the ekwueme treatment, repressing freedom of speech, nans etc) dont you think that he may likely repeat those things if he eventually wins

more questions may be added as time goes on but lets make do with these


nb:i am apolitical

thank you brother we are all fighting for d good of our beloved country.
1.FOI only exist in paper but in real life it doesn't exist under GEJ'S administration. Most information issued out or presented to the public are badly doctored by gej. Lies and lies is bin sold to Nigerians.
2. The number of crooks in pdp at the moment is far higher than that of apc..so it will be easier to deal with them than those in pdp.
3. Yea I agree but do you know it was all in d name of fighting corruption he stepped on toes. Those were his excesses. We have forgiven him.
Given jonathan's antecedents.( shielding corrupt officials.. disobeying court orders..encouraging treason.. he gave pardon to convicted criminals. Do u think he won't do more if re-elected. As times goes on der are more questions for pdp supporters.

Nigerian military goes berserk, blocks newspapers distribution in Abuja, Lagos



The Nigerian military on Saturday continued its onslaught on newspapers by sealing off the popular major distribution depot in the Area 1 District of Abuja, from where all newspapers are distributed to agents and vendors across the Nigerian capital.
Witnesses said soldiers in about seven trucks laid siege on the distribution point, preventing any kind of newspaper circulation from taking place.
Media houses promptly devised an alternate and secret means to ensure their papers get to the public in the Nigerian capital promptly; a reminder of the days of military dictatorship.
The Managing Director of Leadership Group, Azubike Ishiekwene, expressed his concern at the situation.
“As I speak to you now, I’ve been driving round Abuja, there are no papers in town. The major newspaper depot at Area 1 has been shut down by soldiers in seven trucks,” he told PREMIUM TMES. “This is definitely an affront on press freedom and free speech.”
It was not only in Abuja that the military declared war on newspapers.
In Lagos, soldiers confiscated thousands of copies of the Saturday edition of Leadership newspaper at the domestic wing of the Murtala Mohammed International Airport in Lagos.
The Lagos editor of the newspaper, Kazeem Akintunde, confirmed the seizure to PREMIUM TIMES.
“Yes, our paper was seized this morning at the airport around 6 a.m.,” Mr. Akintunde said.
The newspaper’s cover story for the day concerns the death of the Emir of Kano and not any report relating to military operations.
He also said a staff of the circulation department of the paper was arrested by the soldiers.
In Benin, the Edo State capital, soldiers continued their siege on the office of the Nigerian Union of Journalists, NUJ, preventing all but Leadership and The Nation newspapers from being circulated.

Patrick Ochoga, the Edo state correspondent of Leadership in Benin confirmed this to PREMIUM TIMES.
The military attack on Nigerian newspapers commenced on Friday with soldiers confiscating thousands of Nigerian newspapers including Leadership, The Nation, and Punch newspapers.
The military, however, defended its actions in a statement by its spokesperson, Chris Olukolade, who said it was a routine security check.
“The Defence Headquarters wishes to clarify that the exercise has nothing to do with content or operation of the media organisations or their personnel as is being wrongly imputed by a section of the press,” Mr. Olukolade, a Major General, said on Friday.
Mr. Olukolade could not be reached on Saturday to comment on the continuing media onslaught.
The Nigerian government also, Friday, defended the military’s attack on Newspapers.
“The military will not deliberately and without cause, infringe on the freedom of the press,” Mike Omeri, the Director General of the National Orientation Agency said.
According to him, “confiscation of newspapers has nothing to do with content or operation of the media organisations or their personnel.”
The military onslaught against the media might not be unconnected with several media reports, first published by Leadership Newspapers, that nearly a dozen army generals and soldiers on lower ranks were being court-martialled for sabotaging the Nigerian government’s onslaught against Boko Haram; a report the military denied
