If you look at my post again, you would note I did not claim that buhari has lost his privacy entirely , what I claimed was that there are limits to what he can call private.
Really? Who created those limits and who determines what those limits are? You?

Can anyone cite for me any section of the constitution that exempts government owned residences?

For example, I'm a civil servant and I live in a government owned building, what law allows a stranger to invade my residence and listen in on private discussions that I'm having with my guests. Can anyone cite the law that permits this?

The defence building is a public building.
Defence House is a residence and is also covered by the section on privacy. If you think this is not the case, then go to the residence of the Chief of Defence Staff (Defence House), Chief of Army Staff (Flag Staff House) or the residence of the President and claim that you have the right to cover the activities of their families.

Agreed but note the following:
From the moment buhari was declared winner of the 2015 presidential elections , he lost what remaining rights he had to his privacy short of that that is required for family interaction, and that required for interaction with friends aNd assocIates.
Buhari is no longer the property of the apc he is the property of all nigerians
Buhari's needs and welfare (accomodation,security,feeding etc)are now provided for by the state
Any foreign individual/entity who comes to visit buhari at this time and going forward is performing a diplomatic /state funtion and no privacy is required(to a limit).
If must let or prevent the media from covering certain events you must do so and BE SEEN TO HAVE DONE SO IN A FREE FAIR AND EVEN MANNER, for such are the demands of our democracy.
Can you state the law that has suddenly deprived him of his right to privacy? He doesn't lose his right to privacy simply because you say so.

The highest amount of thread I've created in a day is two, and the bot has been disturbing me since then, banning me unnecessarily and making me unable to create threads.
Well, it's happened to me and many of my friends in the past and it's usually caused by creating too many posts or too many threads. The mods can't fix it. The bot usually releases you after a day or two.

I can't create a thread since yesterday and I'm not serving any ban, it kept displaying 'Server Overwhelmed' whilst tons of useless thread are being created every second. Please Ma, look into it.embarassed
That usually happens when you've created too many threads within a short time span (people who create too many posts are also told that the "server is overwhelmed" when they want to create a new post). The antispam bot thinks that you are a robot (a spambot) that is creating lots of threads to spam the forum.

The usual solution is to wait a while. It usually corrects itself after a day or two.

Ishilove:
1Cor 11: vs 3-7. But I want you to realize that the head of every man is Christ, and the head of the woman is man, and the head of Christ is God. Every man who prays or prophesies with his head covered dishonors his head. But every woman who prays or prophesies with her head uncovered dishonors her head—it is the same as having her head shaved. For if a woman does not cover her head, she might as well have her hair cut off; but if it is a disgrace for a woman to have her hair cut off or her head shaved, then she should cover her head.

A man ought not to cover his head, since he is the image and glory of God; but woman is the glory of man.
So, the issue is not about covering of the head in church, but about covering of the head when praying or prophesying. So the question is, was he praying at that time?

Photoshop very convincing the British Queen will never share that carriage with a foreigner my friend its fake.
The Queen usually rides in the same carriage as a visiting head of state (if it's a state visit). It's the norm. She has ridden in the same carriage with Yakubu Gowon, Shehu Shagari and Ibrahim Babangida.

That was in 1989. Newsline (Patrick Oke and Yinka Craig) did a special on it at the time. I've forgotten who received President and Mrs Babangida at Heathrow, then they took the train to Victoria Station where the Queen was waiting for them.

Maryam Babangida curtseyed, while the President just shook hands with the Queen. There was the 21 canon salute, then they rode to Buckingham Palace in carriages (The Queen and the President in a carriage, Prince Philip and Maryam in another carriage. Babangida's ministers and other members of his delegation were in other carriages). I remember seeing the ginormous (rotund) figure of Alhaji Abubakar Alhaji in one of the carriages. There were royal salutes (God Save The Queen and Arise O Compatriots) all along the route.

Margaret Thatcher visited Lagos in 1988 and 1989. Prince Philip visited Lagos in 1989 (he laid the foundation stone of Muson Centre in Onikan) and Prince Charles and Princess Diana visited Lagos in 1990 (a few weeks before the Okar Coup).

[size=14pt]Maku urges Commission to regulate operations of social media bloggers[/size]

By Daily Post Staff on February 11, 2014

Information Minister Labaran Maku on Tuesday urged the National Broadcasting Commission (NBC) to monitor the operations of social media in Nigeria, ahead of the 2015 elections.

Maku said this in Abuja at a forum on broadcast media coverage of the 2015 election, jointly organised by the NBC and the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC).

He said that there was a lot of negative and untrue information that had been disseminated by some internet bloggers that could destabilise the polity.

“One other place we need to watch is the social media blogs.

“We need to call some of the social media blog owners, sit with them; some of the messages we see on the social media are very harmful.

“We need to re-examine what we are doing there; social media is a source for good.

“We are using them to reach the masses but we must also develop an attitude to ensure that whatever goes in there will promote the development of our country,’’ he said.

Maku pointed out that as the electioneering period drew nearer, politicians and their supporters would likely explore available media of information dissemination to spread messages that were inimical to development.

He urged the media to increasingly deploy its gate-keeping responsibility in the reportage of political activities.

He appealed to newsmen to down play reports that could cause anarchy and crisis in the society.

Maku reminded them of their responsibility to maintain harmony in the aftermath of the 2015 election saying that its success depended largely on the media.

Earlier, former Chief Justice of the Federation, Justice Mohammed Uwais, stressed that newsmen had a constitutional responsibility to ensure harmony in the polity both before and after the elections.

Uwais said that practitioners and media proprietors should put aside their interests and biases for the good of the country in the forthcoming elections.

“The media provide the platform for public debates, dissemination of information, expression of opinion on political and social issues, setting agenda on societal issues and enlightenment.

“Therefore, the role of the media is critical in facilitating the participation of citizens in public discourse.

“ If properly employed, the media will contribute to the development of a consensus on national issues.

“There are numerous legislations and professional precepts that made provisions on the role of the Nigerian media in our electoral process,’’ he said.

In his address, the NBC Director-General, Mr Emeka Mba, said that the forum was organised to provide a road map on the coverage of the 2015 elections.

He said that the forum would equip media professionals and their employers with the necessary background on how to approach issues relating to the elections.
