GEJ HAS BEEN CLEARED BY GOD, NIGERIANS AND HUMANITY.
He is 100x the man Buhari can ever NEVER be..

I am proud to have existed in his time - Buhari will soon show his real old colour.
A deranged pack of nitwits (I mentioned no-name(s)) have voted for dictatorship once more!!


Mods: Abeg; i no call person name ooh!!

Well, the General Is entitle to his own privacy. U shld wait till he's sworn in before saying trash. he has said what he wanted for now. after he's sworn in, AIT can come and be sleeping in his sitting room. but for now, let them be tapping from Channels. Op don't commit suicide oo. follow mama piss instruction which says " she rather die than.....

Vello:

can you see now how poor you really are expectin buhari to become what you can never be. the guy you quoted only expressed his opinion and you quickly castigated him. call a spade its name, you're a disgruntled intolerant poor loser who'll never see any good in buhari.
i'll repeat what the guy you quoted said, "haters, go and die.

Pls bear with me if you find my writeup a bit disorganized. My tablet is yet to arive so am using a small phone to write this piece to express maself about recent development. Thanks for understanding.



I was thrown into a deep shock when i read in the news that President elect, M. Buhari bared media house AIT from covering his activities. Though i wasnt surprised by his action, i was surprise because he's already showing the true nature we knew he was even before swearing in. What sort of democrat bar a media house from covering public activities? Does he think the office of President is he's private property? Who does he think he is? A king? Does he know the meaning of a public servant? Maybe not. Why he's semi illitrate, if not he would have understood that in democracy, the office of the president is not only accountable to the people but also to the Press. That is why freedom of the Press is one of the shining lights of democracy as a form of govenment.



This singular act by Buhari to bar a media organization from covering his activities as president elect just comfirm that he's still the same old dictator that he was 32 years ago. A liar who lied to the world in Chatam house that he was a democrat, banning a media house from covering his activities because of a documentary? Very childish and imature indeed! Does he know what democracy is all about? If he feels pained by a documentary then he has no business in politics.



I remember vividly during the US presidential campaign of 2008 when Fox News network castigated Obama to a point of no return. They made fun of him, ridicule him, called him monkey, fueled his birth certificate issues to the extend that almost got most Americans asking questions about his true country of birth. In the end he had to surrender his birth certificate to the press (unlike Buhari and his school certificate mess). It was a scandal. Plus the many other systematic attacks against his candidacy. Fox news people are racist. Those of you who watched that channel during and after the Presidential campaigns will know what am talking about. But ever since Barack Obama won the Presidency of the United States, not ones did Obama vent out his anger to revenge against fox news. Why? Because he understood the principles of democracy. As a private individual no media house will bother you. But as soon as you become a politician, the eyes of the press makes a microscopic look at your personality. The media will not only scrutinize your past but will also go way back in time to study your childhood background. Any shocking revelation will be brought to the public front. That is the way it is in democracy especially in advance societies like USA. Even our dear GEJ was not speared from the hard scrutinizing lens of the press, sometimes personal and insulting attacks against him. Did he ever vent out his anger by baring them from covering his activities? No. Why? Because he like Obama understood the principles of Democracy. He understood that press freedom is paramount in democracy. Thats why Nigerians of all ages can express themselves freely without fear of being arrested. This is the beauty of Democracy and freedom. For Buhari to lower himself like a child who got his azz kicked by his cousin to trample upon Freedom of Press shows that he's nothing but thesame old dictator in civilian clothes.
Just like someone said, like OBJ like Buhari. Both dictators in civilian clothing.

BTW, I hear many Buhari followers giving excuses that he has the right to bar AIT citing privacy as reasons. Sure i completely agree that every individual on the planet deserves the right to privacy. That ofcouse is a fundamental human right. But they however failed to note that as soon as an individual becomes a public official in the position of a President elect, privacy becomes a secondary issue. Infact privacy is not an excuss to bar a media organization from performing its function by investigating Buhari's activites as president elect.

Mynd44:

Please answer this. Have you ever seen Obama on Fox news giving an interview?

That's what Buhari did. He cut access to AIT. He can do that

Codedrunscom:

PapiWata:


If you don't mind my asking, why have you changed the name of Mr. HZRF to "Swerry".

What does "swerry" mean ? Is it a cute name for someone who likes to eat cherries, as in "Swerry the Cherry eater" ?

Inquiring minds want to know.

Sorry, not tribalism, but Igbos are trying so hard to find a fault from buhari. Why? He will assume his duty in may why in hurry? For now he have every right to his privacy.

PUBLIC PROTEST !! PROTEST !! THE TIME IS NOW.

cy4cent:


Lol, it is a term to tell someone not to be pissed, n even when they are to tell them it's not worth it.

After all, we can talk about issues without fighting.
By the way, why are you interested in finding out, the person I quoted didn't mind.

major466:

No. But that is a different ball game. A government that finds a media house to be particularly too critical of its policies can choose not to patronise that media house. There's no problem with that. Infact, that is exactly what Obama did. He doesnt honor their interview request nor make adverts through them. But he never bared them from covering his functions as president elect up to his Presidency till date.
Buhari can choose not to patronise AIT but he has no right to bar them from doing their work.

Kolade354:
Dont mind dose igbos.....they will never see anyting gud in Buhari.........Bunch of Bigot so silly lyk Apga.

Codedrunscom:


Selective reasoning. slave mentality.

major466:

You need a lot of education about democracy and th freedom of press in a Presidential system of government. Did i hear you say fox news were professional in their work What is professional about calling someone derogative names Clearly you dont watch fox news.
