Bluffly:

The woman's action is a state offence because it is attempted murder. Ahmed's act is not a state offence and can only be pursued if the victim takes it up to sue for battery

Dont always rush to comment on things you don't fully understand all in the name of looking for likes

Are you now saying because he has been helping people he should now take laws into his own hands and start misbehaving?

The man should know quite well that as a journalist there are lines you must not cross

How is this man now different from the Nigeria police that is known for brutalising suspects.

It's not today that the guy has clearly been breaching the NBC broadcasting code. The other day he was telling somebody to shut up on air

Some few years back he demarketed arik air by saying people should not patronise them that they can crash at any time that Nigerians should fly air peace

We all know he's making a meaningful impact in the lives of Nigerians and that was how he was able to get the grants he used in setting up the radio station from MacArthur Foundation. but that doesn't mean he should now allow it to enter his head and begin to slap everybody.

PraiseGodNoTime:
The apology is useless. The woman he slapped should get a good lawyer and deal a great blow to his as*. You can't be tarnishing image of journalist in disguise that you're too emotional and having compassion.

Righteousness2:
See How humans do all they can to Torment and bring down a man who has been of immense help , all for a silly action, which he has apologized for.

A Man who sacrificed himself to help so many people.

We Live in a very terrible and Wicked World

Frales6:
That slap wey him give that woman been sweet me ooo. I hope the slap cover her entire face sha cox I no watch am. abeg make dem leave that guy man alone. Some women wear wickedness like cloth and dem go carry the frustration put ontop anybody wey dem fit oppress. Even some of those people criticizing this man for do worst than him if to say na dem get that boy.

BlueAir:
I didn't say he won't stand trial. He will certainly walk away or pay the murderous woman money while making Nigerians look stupid at the same time. Either ways he wins. Nigerians don't deserve a "Superman"

MadamFay:


If I remember correctly, your Bible says that a man is not justified by his outward works.

Even as I do not seek to invalidate his altruistic works (I kind of liked his programme when I lived in Abuja), I think we also need to realize that as humans, we are not inherently perfect or good ( most times, the so-called 'good' we do stems from our selfish desires to be known, to please others to get liked, or to cover up a sin of the past). Romans 3:10 says, there's no one that is good, no one.

True justice exists in a system where one's wrong isn't overlooked because he's done 'right' in the past. That's how God thinks even! He said in Ezekiel that if a righteous man does evil, he isn't blinded by the good works of the past as to not hold him accountable. Why am I making references to these? I do so objectively and without sentiments. The man openly assaulted the woman, which is wrong. That he is a HUMAN RIGHTS activist should make him more accountable. Whether he is seen as the Jesus Christ of the present day who 'sacrifices' himself for others or not is immaterial.

ojilepikin:
He's not stopping the programme, the story is misleading. He only threatened to stop the programme but when we'll meaning Nigerians intervened and urged him to continue, he agreed and promised to continue. I watched the programme today on Startimes TV channel 537 when he apologized. What the lady did was too bad and provoking: set fire on the hair of a little girl of 6years old claiming the little girl is witch. She tired the girl's hands and legs, poured kerosene on the weavon
the little girl was putting on and set fire on the hair. When a neighbour heard the cry of the little girl and rushed to assist, she refused to let the neighbour in. Those promoting to tarnish the image of Ordinary President do not mean well for Nigeria and the poor masses in particular.

lizdammy:

On point.
I watched the video, and at that time, felt bad seeing him slap the lady twice despite the severity of her offence.

Anyways, his humanity just manifested that day and perhaps unknown to him, BBC was covering it.

It is amazing how one bad deed has the capacity to erase almost the entirety of all the good you have done before.

May God help is not to fall at the height of our life achievements. Character may be managed and hidden for long but not for ever.

The solidity of character is the surest guarantee for success in life.

Religion6:

This man (Ordinary President) has devoted his entire life to fight for the common man. If what he said should happen then there is no justice for the common man again. He has been subjected to all kinds of weather because he's pushing the common man's need. He has apologised and that's what should be important here. Imagine someone setting fire on a child because she felt that she's a witch. The woman deserved more than a slap. My opinion though.

ogwuche4u:


I like Ahmed isah for his selfless service to humanity. Just that he messed up this time around. As a human right activist, he should have known better not to allow his emotions ride over him.

Draconian:
The lady he slapped doused a 7 year old girl with kerosene and fire. If it were your child,
what would you do?

brainmax2000:
a bloody scammer the bastard just scammed me

aswr if I no follow up this case I wont forgive myself

codecoded:

Their are codes and conducts in every profession, encluding journalism. He was wrong and that he has apologized; so stop the nonsense okay. And mind you, he never slapped the women for her evil deed. But rather he slapped her for insisting that nobody told her of the girl being a witch; it was just her own assumption.
Watch the video over again; with a clear head this time and see what actually infuriated the presenter. The question is, who was the presenter expecting her to mention?
Your worries should be trying to encourage him to continue the show rather than supporting his wrong.

younglleo:
lol, honestly he kept asking dat woman y she roast dey pikin, nd dey woman kept talking jagon, lol!
dey tin even vex me sef, not until he conclude nd dashed dey woman front nd bck slap wit his 1500 agbada lol, i no fit hold dat laff.
mak dem stop tagging him evil, some people would do more, dat woman is pure evil

DaddyGoo:
There is no reason for Ordinary Ahmed to stop the show.

That woman carried out an action that even the devil will be ashamed of.

Tied up, soaked in kerosene and then set a pre teen child on fire because some stupid mind told you she is a witch.

My Ordinary President no even slap am reach!

If na your pikin dem roast like BBQ , how e go be you for body?

As for the oversabi BBC cameraman and crew that released the video, 600 years to una!!

I hope as you have done this, you are ready to provide a viable alternative show to defend ordinary Nigerians..........ya, I thought not.

Iberibeism and nonsense!
