Zamfara Govt Shut Down Private Media Houses For Covering PDP Rally by divinehand2003(op): 7:20am On Oct 16, 2022
The Zamfara State government has ordered the closure of all federal and private media houses in the state for covering a Peoples Democratic Party rally.  Consequently, the commissioner of police in the state has been directed to arrest all journalists who attended the event.

The order was announced by the state commissioner for information, Malam Ibrahim Magaji Dosara, via the local state radio.

The affected media organisations include Radio Nigeria, Pride FM, NTA and Gamji FM among others.

According to the commissioner, the closure of the media houses was based on the violation of the state security council directive on the suspension of political activities following the upsurge in banditry in parts of the state.

Suffering & Killing of Nigerians Won't Stop If We Don't Reject Tinubu & Atiku

Tribalism has ruined us and deaths it has brought in tonnes. Under Buhari every state in Nigeria was soaked with blood and we got tired of crying and burying innocent Nigerians. Bandits rampaged and killed and kidnapped women, old and young but the government looked away. Mocking us in anguish.
Just a roar of unity, they've gone to hide waiting to see how strong we are. Have you seen unity in strength? If we make another mistake, we don't know who will survive it. Learn to understand a proverb, we must save our future. Say no to open graves which Tinubu and Atiku represent. Both Atiku and Tinubu lack the will to end what they are part of.

I have chosen to be Obidient and Yuseful for my children's sake. And if the duo I trust much fail, my conscience won't lash me.

Shameful.
This is 2022 and our politicians won't grow up. They still play politics as if they are children.

I notice the same with government media houses that only cover the rallies of the government of the day. Opposition parties don't get airtime in such platforms.
