@willintune: How Nigeria defeated Ebola. My BBC radio report here. http://bbc.co.uk/programmes/p02…

BBC always ignore good news from Nigeria. After months of trying to deny it, they have grudgingly admitted that Nigeria is Ebola free. Download and listen.

Finally!

Well, we don't need their stup.i.d praise...we did it for ourselves alone!

Ok

Trust me. They are stylishly taking a dig at america

And America is there denying Nigerians admission in Texas college bc of ebola. U S is a joke

When you do the right thing even your enemy will be forced to praise you.

The BBC has reported the whole Ebola outbreak professionally like a good media outfit should. I don't know when praising anyone became a part of their remit or why anyone would feel his country needs their praise.

what does it matter

to hell with bbc,cnn...to hell with dem. Wen did we need a foreign media to believe in ourselves! Yeah we did it in dier faces!

I smell ridicule here... America no dey as organised as Naija people abi?

Professionally right? Like they "professionally" ignored 1st, 2nd, 3rd and 4th battles of Konduga where BH were "professionally" defeated by the NA? The same BBC were "profesionally" in a haste to report BH attacks in Gwoza and Bama?
Smh

Sorry, did I misread the thread? It's about Boko Haram and not Ebola, and so your post is apt and I should respond to it, right?

I'm just trying to show you the obvious bias in BBC reportage, not denying the "professional" Ebola scourge reporting.

There is no bias. Anyway I don't expect someone who thinks it's the media's remit to praise his country and who mistakes a reportage of the WHO's certification of Nigeria followed by a detailed story on Nigeria's success against Ebola for praise to understand what professional news reporting is all about.

For once they are saying something good about Nigeria.
