Former Kaduna Central Senator Shehu Sani has weighed in on the controversy surrounding the recent Presidential Media Chat participant selection, addressing public reactions about notable media personalities' absence from the event.

In a message shared on his X social media account, the former legislator responded to criticisms about the exclusion of certain journalists from the presidential engagement.

"Some people are not happy that Seun and Rufai were not invited to the President Media Chat. The program was called chat not interrogation," Sani stated.

Sani don dey misyarn...from the best of my knowledge about journalism, answers to questions throws up more questions but Abati and his crew ignored that. The president gave many answers that should have thrown up more questions but that didn't happen

Ringstonermasks:
lol... Never knew he spoke anything about Sharia though. I don't rly fancy d man bt let hear what he said abt it...

"If they believe in the constitution, they would not have introduced Sharia while the constitution exits" _Nnamdi Kanu

Omenlon:
poor people, everything about you people just revolve around money. If everything is about money people won't be striving to break records and setting records. You think Christiano Ronaldo is still playing for Portugal national team because of money?

Elon Musk..I hail you. It is height of foolishness and stupidity not to respect people's choices. Poor or rich, choices abound. You make your choice and respect other people's choices

Stolen:
LOOK, I'M MOVING ON TO BETTER THINGS NOT WASTING MY TIME ON A CLOWN.

PEOPLE THAT NEED SUCH ATTENTION ARE WOMEN,.

Na you get energy to waste

Lol...stop giving him expo. Let him wallow in his own ignorance and stupidity

Ringstonermasks:
if you support Sharia in SW, tell us why


If you don't, please drop your argument here too, let's debate this.

Well, let me look for Nnamdi Kanu's 2014 quote, I would be back to comment properly

Here in Asaba, there is nothing to report

IgboSomalia:
Trophies and Glory.

Let me tell you, Saka as a black man in England will always be just another nigga.
Remember Saka and Rashford during the Euro finals that England lost. Kane also lost a penalty but they blamed the black players. Called them all sorts.
No trophy, no respect. Just another slave hustling for the King.
That's what Lookman escaped. He's currently the King of African football. Who is Saka?

Just because it favoured Lookman does not mean it will favour another person. Just like politics, it is all about calculations. Sometimes, it favours you, sometimes, it goes the other way. If I were a footballer, my primary concern would be money, trophies and the rest become secondary. It is all about priority. And to answer your question, Saka is a man who has secured the future of his unborn generation. If I have that privilege, I would worry less about what people think about me

Walai:
This money would have used to fund Wike's political structure if they had not fallen out leaving little for the people of the state.
When a govt knows its fate lies on the peoples wish, it will sit up and do the right thing but Nigerians are blinded by tribalism and religion, The current APC govt are busy buying off INEC and the judiciary while the miscreants are hailing them in the name of tribalism and religion.

Quite pathetic

IgboSomalia:
That one will be regretting by now.
His own is even better. There's the other scapegoat called Tammy Abraham.



Saka will see more shege than Harry Kane. Make we just dey look.

Saka has secured the future of his unborn generation. So what shege are you talking about?

Make Una settle am without punch

Please stop this madness.

When Tinubu was asked on how he's fighting corruption, he said....

“Pay them good and living wages,” President Tinubu said, referencing the recent increase in the minimum wage from N35,000 to N70,000.

“To me, that is anti-corruption.


Minimum wage under Goodluck Jonathan was able to get one a bag of 50kg rice.

Minimum wage under Tinubu can't buy 50kg rice.



Dude doesn't know that he has reduced the purchasing power, devalued naira, which makes 70,000 naira in 2024 lesser than 15,000 naira in 2014. And he's saying it is anti-corruption policy.

The more you look...

Xisnin:
Fighting evil via defamation against your bench opponent.
That is so great!

The matter is in court. He will prove himself or he pay for accusing someone wrongly. What I don't understand is why you guys attack the Dele or is there something you guys are not telling us?

emkz:
We expect Rufai to fault the interview because it was not controversial. The questioning were mature. The interviewers listened and we could see how the president thinks from his responses to cogent questions.

The President said he had shared palliatives in his Bourdillon residence for 25 years without incidents. Rufai Oseni's rebuttal was that he saw people lining on the road and if a car came by, it would have hit them.

Did any car hit anyone? But Rufai had to share his negativity.

Rufai Oseni's odious pessimism and incendiary cynicism is why Arise News never put him in a high level panel like a presidential media chat with sensible and established journalists.

It was insensitive of the president to even make reference to having shared palliative without incident. People have been sharing palliative without incidents. For instance, the person who sponsored the palliative that cause the Anambra incident, has been doing so for more than 30 years without incident. So Rufai was on point in calling the the president out for that reference

DesChyko:
There is a reason Abati, not Rufai represented Arise TV. Certain aspersions and comments by Tinubu would not have gone unchallenged.

That's who Rufai is; he asks the questions everyone avoids asking the establishment.

Exactly...Rufai is always blunt

How could the mod move this divisive thread to the front page? Is that mod insane?

ehikwe22:
He didn't ask you to submit questions - that's 100% true.

The questions were prepared by the presidency

Lol...your wickedness is confusing me

Looking4Trouble:
The ones that brought out millions of votes for Tinubu and Atiku which sank Bitter Obituary

If you have shame, you would have exhibited your stupidity differently.

Who are those fools?

Rich with poverty mentality

This is funny. Reno is celebrating a list on which the obidients put his name

RevDesm0ndJuju:
More like because you dolts know Kanu cannot escape nor defend all the counts he is facing trial for.

Well, the matter is already before the courts and Tinubu can not interfere with a criminal proceeding .

What you "free Barrabas" chanting Congo jews have left is to appeal to Tinubu to grant Kanu an executive pardon and that can only happen after a conviction is secured and Kanu shows remorse.

You can then approach Tinubu as the head of the federal executive to table a pardon request before the Council of State that comprises of former living Presidents, traditional rulers , governors , etc to request for Kanu to be granted a pardon.

You can't be accusing Tinubu of influencing and meddling with judiciary process and the same time demand he does the same on an ongoing criminal proceeding bothering on Felony treason and terrorism.

And you have to write epistle on Kanu's matter. He must be living rent free in your head

wonder233:
Even if the government comes out and say "we have stolen all your money! " Some people will still come out and justify it. They will think they are spiting another tribe.
Tribal hate is a bad thing. A person won't mind if his future and that of his future generations are stolen, so long he feels it will pepper another tribe.
Smaora Machel's quote is golden: "For the Nation to rise, the tribe must die".

Some people will even say it is a prank

sreamsense:
If you want to answer my questions, you answer all without going out of context. If government infested heavily in agriculture and engage many youths; will it not be a source of revenue to government? How many poor in the society will the hotel benefit? Will the hotel pay higher tax than big agricultural farm to government? Hotel that will even end up molesting lifes of many undergraduates from esut, imt and unec under guise of sex for mark.

Government should spend money on other benefiting areas to the masses. How many people are patronizing hotels in a civil servant and student states than prostitutes? Enugu is a civil servant and student environment, ipob don't allow investors to come to south east, so those coming there are minimal. Major patronage of hotels in Enugu is majorly for prostitution and other for government official meeting engagement.

Before writing epistle, you should verify how the governor is doing in other sectors. Poor man will not lodge in the hotel but revenue generated from the hotel would be used to do other things that could benefit a poor man.

sreamsense:
Is it only hotel that government is spending money on? How has hotel benefited poor in their numbers? Apart from rich men, government officials and lecturers that do carry esut, imt and unec students to that nearby presidential hotel, how else does it benefit the poors in numbers? Anyway, weldone Mr governor; try to help us touch more other areas too especially now that ipob has been defeated and their leaders in prisons

Hotel of such standard is a source of revenue for a serious government to do more. There is nothing wrong in doing hotel project

gidgiddy:
All these people who keep saying that Obi blamed Tinubu for stampede, and politicised the issue, I wonder if the actually read what Obi said?






So where did Obi blame Tinubu here? Where was the issue politicised here? Or are these not cold hard facts?

Don't mind stupid people

Cindypresh:
Meanwhile...

No stress yourself again....we have coded the remaining lines. Lol

Beuberry:
It's all over the news. You don't politicize issues like this. He should have condoled with victims and nation at large.

All over which news? I asked a simple question. What is political about his statement?

Beuberry:
Reno is right. Obi should not use human lives to play politics. Shey na APC cos misfortunes in his state during his time as gov?
Let us be reasonable. I don't like how men play politics. Give women chance

Can you kindly point just one political statement in Obi statement.

Na to enter market remain for Reno

Hate him or love him, he is blunt
