Journalists Barred From Covering Buhari’s 2018 Budget Presentation by 9jAgossipdey: 2:33pm On Nov 07, 2017
Journalists from some section of the media, mostly online and a few from some print and electronic media have been barred from covering the 2018 budget presentation by President Buhari at the National Assembly.

The budget presentation billed to commence by 2p.m today Tuseday 7th November, 2017 saw some journalist denied entry into the National assembly premises.



Journalists from PREMIUM TIMES, who were among those barred said they were denied entry despite presenting their official and National Assembly identity cards to the security operative who rather told them point-blank that a circular was earlier circulated in that regard.

He said names of some journalists from some media organisations were missing an “accreditation list” prepared by the Research and Information Directorate of the National Assembly.


Other journalists who were barred were Goodness Adaoyiche of Pulse.ng among others.

Details soon….

They've once again succeeded to keep the original copy from the Nigerian public. Whatever comes out afterwards will be a doctored copy.

Yes. They have the right to ban any media house from covering their event. It's still Democracy. Others are covering the event

I wonder why people expect a serial coup plotter to operate a Democratic govt. That is APC govt for you - military dictatorship. A party that got power through media propaganda now stifling media freedom.






Animal Kingdom.

Ofcourse Buhari has never been a fan of the press and freedom of information infact during the closing remarks of his uninspiring presentation he vowed to crack down on social media users who were using hate speech and to Buhari hate speech is anyone who criticises his lack lustre leadership

The youths of Nigeria should contribute money and buy sniper rifles to shoot down all this corrupt leaders and politicians. That is another form of revolution.

Fake News...But we just watch the budget presentations on all channels and online live coverage. Can't you people use your simple sense that it is a fake news from wailers and educated illiterates, that lack reasoning ability.

"The budget must anchor on the implementation of #MadeInNigeria and it must be reflected in public procurement". I paraphrased.

The President drives a German Merecedes Benz (just one of the many exotics in the fleet), same with the Senate President and the news of the procurement of Toyota SUVs and Peugeot for Senators and MHRs respectively is still fresh in our minds while Innoson is probably still there, struggling to keep it's head above the waters. Can't you take a cue from America? They are trying to build a new official car for the President, they simply sent their specs to General Motors (an American company) to build.
If the Nigerian government is the only customer Innoson has, I stand to say it is enough for the business to thrive well (and we can do the rough arithmetic). These guys keep taking us for a ride and make Nigerians feel stupid.

I know Jonathan's government (like her predecessors) dealt Nigeria a great deal of monumental damage and this man came with so much initial "gra-gra" to fix things but even from his own end, nothing at all. All we see is a body language that reeks so much of ignorance and unconciousness. You'd expect little things (that aren't affected by "oil price" like this to be quickly fixed, at least, through leading by example but alas...

Surprisingly, some of us will still come here and make excuses for them, "Oh! They can't fix this because...". Damn! Things have fallen apart and the centre has long lost it's hold.

Plus, am I the only one that feels like the 2017 budget hasn't even been passed or implemented (lol!)?
