. Didn't you watch the presidential media chat where the same issue was raised, so you have no point. I repeat there's no where in the world where the press is spoonfed with information at every turn.

Does that imply that in most turns...or even few, the press can be spoon fed with information? Maybe you should enlighten me on the presidential media chat and my response having no point.

akinsbaba2015:
. You have no idea of the FOI bill that you are shouting about. Do you think journalists were allowed to cover FEC meetings during your hero's tenure. What they show to you on TV are pre-meeting formalities. Once the council start deliberations the press is excused.

So the parents are public officers or. Security agents??

I must salute the courage of dr oby she inspires me a lot. She has a great passion for project nigeria. Must ignorant people always claim she is doing this cos she needs job. The forgot that not doing anything at all is the greatest part of failure. God bless you madam due process

akinsbaba2015:
. So you want the press to cover private meetings of the President? That's why you have press briefings and press conferences. When the delegation leave the state house then if they like they can interview everyone on the entourage. That's the way it's done everywhere in the world. They are pressmen not pokenosers.

The government should never conduct any affair in secret unless it is something of detriment to the average citizen. Hiding everything under the clout of secrecy is the reason government officials have been looting without fear and a major reason we cannot fully ascertain which side is winning the war on terror.
These people are called 'public servants' for a reason; anything they do should remain open to the public so we can scrutinize and know if tax payer money is utilized properly or spent on waste.

The same journalist that 'propagandaed' him into office

Parents of the abducted Chibok girls and members of the Bringbackourgirls movement on Thursday refused to leave when they were told that President Muhammadu Buhari would not meet with them. The protesters insisted on seeing the president, who had promised, on July 8, to rescue the abducted schoolgirls.

The president, whom Garba Shehu, presidential spokesman, said was at a meeting at the time the protesters arrived at the villa, sent Aisha Alhassan, minister of women affairs, as his representative to them. But Alhassan took shots at the Chibok parents and the BBOG for not giving the government prior notice of their coming.

In response, Oby Ezekwesili, former minister of education and leader of the BBOG, accused the minister of not being fair. “You have been very unfair to us,” she said. “I don’t understand why you can be chiding the parents and the movement. These parents were triggered by the words of the president who promised to rescue their daughters.” BBOG members and parents of the girls waiting for Buhari at the banquet hall of the presidential villa While she was still speaking, Shehu interrupted her to announce that the president would now meet the protesters.

Mohammed Monguno, national security adviser; Mohammed Dan Ali, minister of defence, and Gabriel Olonishakin, chief of defence staff were in the government delegation that received the group.

When the president eventually arrived, he ordered journalists out of the meeting. Shehu, who voiced the order, said the reason was because some “sensitive issues” were to be discussed. A galaxy of journalists who had turned up for the meeting thronged out of the banquet hall, venue of the meeting, in quick steps.

Kudos to Buhari...............They don't discuss security issues on social media. America didnt announce whereabout of Osama Bin Laden until he was killed.

When will Nigerians especially those from SE know that security issues are not supposed to be discussed in public. This politics of pain and hate wont favor you guys.

seunmsg:



You want the president to meet with them in the presence of journalists? Are you guys for real?

The press would be briefed on the decisions reached after the meeting is concluded. Sensitive security issues cannot be discussed with media cameras everywhere.

Beside, we should give kudos to the president for meeting with the BBOG activists for the second time in his administration. When this same group attempted to meet GEJ, they were tear gassed by AIG Mbu and his men.

Buhari can do no wrong. Even if wrong it is right.

Please tell me the security thing they want to discuss with village women who 'their children were kidnapped'? Just a vague idea of what it might possibly be no matter how ridiculous it might sound?

Meanwhile hope you heard he stormed out of the meeting in anger?

Jorussia:
Close door section is normally adopted for security meetings,the world over,even the UN security council meetings are held with out media coverage

Bush man

2nd Lie Mohamed in the making

God bless the President and shame on those who said the BBOG was a scam and ended on May 29 last year.

The leopard can never change its spots. Silent tyranny in a democratic setting. PMB walk the talk, bring back our girls.

ProfessorPeter:
Up tyrant. Up chain. A leopard remain a leopard.

Wailing wailer.

I am sure PMB will tell them the truth. That no girl is missing, that it was an APC propaganda. Garraofhia

What makes you think the parents of BBOGS won't divulge any information to members of the press afterwards...So the said meeting is good as open to the media.

FEGNO:
Gradually! Gradually- singing in fela style.
we are seeing buhari for what he is. A reformed democrat my foot!

We need someone with dictatorial character like him. Jonathan was too soft. People looting billions under his nose because he didn't want to be called a dictator.

Don't mind the dumb youngin's we have on Nairaland and other platforms. Most can't really think well and deep

Security ni
Insecurity ko.

Even channels crew follow waka, chaiiiiii

ProfessorPeter:
security meeting indeed! So the parent of chibok girls are security personnel or service chief?

hahahahahaha let them know bro

Nice move, that's the change we asked for!

The parents are confused. Someone has to lead them. I fear for the outcomes..

Channels, another brown envelope media house and praise singer of Buhari among those chased out of presidential villa today, what a good move!

cutestcee:
Really?! And some people still see nothing wrong with it? Our youths have been brainwashed completely.
Chibok girls matter is a very public issue and should be aired.
Where is Channels TV that turned Madam Jonathan's effort to a joke? Hope this one is better, not knowing what transpired at all?

Maybe he want to use Hausa to communicate or he want to pay them off bcs of the scam role they play during the previous govt

Dat is my presido d jakata.wee dy luk

[quote author=Jorussia post=41968971][/quote] security meeting indeed....... Is he having meeting with the security chiefs. Continue to act blind
