Posting unverifiable propaganda is not a criminal offense even in Nigeria. So, an arrest in such cases is actually illegal according to
Section 32(2) of the Nigerians Police Act 2020
Section 8(2) of the Administration of Criminal Justice Act 2015
↪and Section 35(1) of the Nigerian Constitution. undecided

Also, if you condone the illegal arrest of people you like to hate, know that you or members of your family are likely to be caught in the same net as these men next. Hope you would sing the praises of your tormenters even then. undecided

Can Tinubu ever get anything right?

I doubt
Re: 12 Journalists Detained So Far By Tinubu Government(picture) by Throwback: 6:46am On Aug 28, 2024
Very good that the legal system is working in Nigeria.

Let anyone go malign anyone they feel like with unverifiable claims, then blame Tinubu for their subsequent arrest and prosecution.

Freedom of Speech is entrenched in the Supreme Law of the Land and equally at the UN Universal Declaration of Human Rights which Nigeria is a signatory. undecided

2. undecided You say things you very well know are not true. There are more innocent Nigerians in jail than there are actual criminals who committed crimes worthy of jail terms in there. So what makes you think you and yours are somehow immune? undecided
Re: 12 Journalists Detained So Far By Tinubu Government(picture) by illicit(m): 7:27am On Aug 28, 2024
If they are fake news vendors....

They deserve it even if it's illegal to arrest or detain them

I suggest they should be flogged mercilessly too

Re: 12 Journalists Detained So Far By Tinubu Government(picture) by Racoon(m):
A sanctimoniously corrupt criminal government will even be afraid of its own shadow.Tyrannical fellas are in government. Everything they do is about self-preservation. It is why whistleblowers suffer the worst fate. They need to make an example of them so that people inside will align and fear them. That is the sole reason for their response to social media noise.

Maybe we should weaponize this division within their ranks for good and encourage more whistleblowers. Sadly, those who succeed at using leaks to remove the people they want to replace become much worse and even brutal. We have NADECO in power today; they were once protesters. The people who used radio stations and TV have silenced radio stations and TV.

These are not even journalists! They are mostly pay-as-you-go bloggers politicians use. If they are journalists, by now the Nigerian Union of Journalists (NUJ) would be fighting for their release like we had during the military era. They should be given free opportunity to defend themselves in court. Criminal defamation is a serious crime, whoever tells you otherwise is setting you up for destruction, those who criminally defame innocent people have ruined the lives of many of their victims. Their victims deserve to get justice.

Meanwhile, this is the man that used every means to attack various govts and latter brought down a govt.........various media were his effective tools he used to achieve his selfish lifetime goal.

Television station.
Radio station.
Newspapers.

If Malians, acting as Arab proxies and Europeans did not educate us about their Abrahamic religions, then how would we have abandoned our traditional beliefs huh

We should all make it our priority to educate and enlighten others.

What do we expect from a man who is a drug sniffing president, during his campaigns he didn't say anything sensible. So why do we expect anything sensible from this government for the next four years. cool

Thin line between ensuring media is not inciting violence and ensuring free speech.
The journalists should be sued to court, and left to the courts to decide.
