NTA Cuts LIVE Program As Yakubu Gowon Refuses To Speak In Hausa (video) by NairaOcean(op): 3:16pm On Feb 22, 2024
On Wednesday, February 21st, 2024, something surprising happened on TV. The Nigerian Television Authority (NTA) was showing a live program with Yakubu Gowon, a former leader. At 5:30 pm, during the show, things got tense.

NTA asked Gowon to speak Hausa, a language he didn't want to use. Gowon is good at speaking English, which he preferred. But NTA kept insisting, even though Gowon said no. Then, without warning, NTA suddenly stopped the program. People watching were confused and upset. They went on social media to talk about it.

People are now talking about why this happened and if it was right. They want NTA to explain.

How can NTA force a former military HOS to address the nation in the hausa language?

You are killing my people, you are still forcing me to speak your language.
Even the future is not bright for my people.

What kind of subjugation is this?

Its easy to understand what played out.

Thiefnibuu is becoming desperate after being openly thrown under the bus by the North who he depends on for votes.

He brings in Gowon for a propaganda job, so they can circulate the tape in the North, hence the need for the General to speak Hausa.

But the old soldier was too wise for them and rejected their plot. grin

Even Thiefnibuu knows his days in that office are numbered.

This does not make sense

Abi does NTA have only Hausa viewers ?
Other tribes are watching
Sorry to say but nothing might happen, the northerners believe they own NTA, have you have heard the song they play before they read news?
The song sounds so northern like....

Look at the color of NTA logo, looks so like northern colors

Ben Bruce came and rebranded all that when he was DG of NTA, changed the logo and color to a fine logo with blue, then made NTA 24 hours, they even stopped playing that northern sound before the news, the camera and recording quality improved that NTA started winning awards and competing with private stations, people who even hated NTA started watching NTA because he brought in new programs too, guess what?

when he was removed as DG, they reversed almost everything he did, it was like they even went and brought the old cameras and started using because the picture quality became poor, the logo was changed back and the northern sound was now played before the news.

Till date NTA has remained like a relic channel, the only thing they kept was the 24 hours broadcast....

shocked



I wonder how Mr. Gowon feels about the state of the same country that the British used him to "unite" by starving millions of innocent kids to death.

Does he suffer from PTSD or depression whenever he remembers how he broke the Aburi Accord or the traumatizing pictures of the starving Biafran kids?

May God help us live a life with less regrets so we can transition to the other side with that peace that comes to your soul when you remember that you spent your time on Earth fighting the right cause.

When we say Nigeria is a federal Republic of fulani you will think we just made it up.
Go to any federal ministry and establishment and see for yourself. The way they destroyed nnpc is the same way they have destroyed nta.

Langtang people will never publicly agree that they are Hausas or know how to speak it.
It was an attempted media coup against Gowon and the people of langtang in plateau state. They have ditched Hausa language long ago. They are Tarok people. Not Hausa.
