[quote author=Whynotthetruth post=33425219][/quote] To be honest, I agree with most of what u are typing and I am not in anyway against the west. My point is simply, the west created their laws according to their culture, we as Nigerians also need to look inwards and develop our on laws and ways of doing things based on our culture. I believe you will also agree with this point. |

trillville: Sure, I love your style...press can be a distraction really sometimes... but our political system in Nigeria is so open to abuse and corruption that killing the press is the best way to cover your tracks and lead a treacherous government... so Nigeria isn't ripe for such and may not ever be...check the dynamics in Nigeria such as our population, multiethnic group, multilingual, multicultural, multi religiosity, etc as against Singapore... it isn't same...Nigeria is a complex country with multiple problems and fragile cohesion... |

Whynotthetruth: Singapore is not just multiethnic but also has people of different races and religion. They have no natural resources. Yet lee Kwan yew developed the land even though he destroyed press freedom. Check out China with its population size. They have almost no press freedom and yet they are the largest economy on earth today using GDP (ppp). There is something funny most Nigerians do not realise. Culturally, most Nigerians today are very similar. Only the core northerners are a bit different but even their difference is not enough to say we are not one people. Why there is division amongst us is poverty and greed. Even if we were all the same language, we will still divide ourselves based on complexion and the fair skin people will claim God blessed them with better skin so the crude should belong to them. It is poverty and greed. What I am saying has happened in Africa before, just watch hotel Rwanda. Check out this link to read on Rwanda Tutsi and Hutu. http://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/guide-to-the-zaire-crisis-the-difference-between-a-hutu-and-a-tutsi-1352558.html |

trillville: 1)Forget movies and face realities bro...movies are edited stories sometimes of realities other times of pure imagination of author... 2)Singapore has a population as Lagos with about half of this again being foreigners...Nigeria is well over 150million as against 5million in Singapore... 3)We rarely have much similarities between any ethnic group...consider Igbo/Yoruba as an example... 4)Business entrepreneur was secret of Lee kuan of Singapore which is same as Youwin of Jonathan which APC never wanted... 5)Singapore has about 5ethnic groups...Nigeria has 250... 6)Singapore has 4 languages...Nigeria has over 250... 7)Singapore had trust for themselves and confronted external aggression united...Nigeria trust no one...fears and suspects themselves and confronts and betrays themselves before any aggression eg boko haram... I am not sure about this your story of lack of press freedom in Singapore with Lee kuan as prime minister... 9)Nigeria is diverse and these groups have nothing in common except that they are all humans... 10)I love your patriotism but the realities aren't same...thanks 2 Likes 1 Share |

http://www.punchng.com/news/military-sss-seize-destroy-major-nigerian-newspapers/ …We are looking for arms – Olukolade The Defense Headquarters and the State Security Service on Friday morning seized and destroyed major Nigerian newspapers in an action reminiscent of military dictatorship in the country. It was learnt that there were random forceful seizures of newspapers including The PUNCH, at the Murtala Mohammed International Airport, Ikeja, Lagos, while newspaper distribution vans were stopped and searched in different parts of the country. Distributors told our correspondent that wrappers of The PUNCH were torn, damaging the cover of some copies while several copies of The Nation, Leadership and Daily Trust were confiscated. ADVERTISEMENT On the website of Leadership, the paper said, “Soldiers on Friday intercepted and destroyed newspaper copies meant for the North-West region at the Kaduna tollgate. The copies booked for South-South and South-East regions were also seized by the soldiers.” According to the newspaper, the soldiers and SSS operatives were said to be acting on ‘orders from above.’ Similarly, The Nation stated that its distribution vans were stopped by soldiers who “waylaid the vans around the Area 1 Road, commanding the drivers to unload.” “The same scenario occurred in Benin/Warri Road, Port Harcourt, Kaduna/Kano Road and Nasarawa/Jos Road,” it said. Also reportedly seized were copies of the paper meant for the Warri and Benin axis. The copies were said to be confiscated by soldiers of the 3 Battalion of the Nigerian Army at Okwuokoko in Delta State. When contacted, the Director of Defence Information, Maj. Gen Chris Olukolade, said in an electronic mail that troops embarked on a search of vehicles conveying newspapers and newsprint because of an intelligence report which indicated that dangerous materials were being moved through such vans. “Troops this morning embarked on thorough search of vehicles conveying newspapers and newsprints across board. “This followed intelligence report indicating movement of materials with grave security implications across the country using the channel of newsprint related consignments,” he said. Olukolade said the exercise had nothing to do with the content, operations and personnel of media organisations. “The general public and the affected media organisations in particular are assured that the exercise was a routine security action and should not be misconstrued for any other motive,” he added. The State Security Service could not be reached for comments. Calls and a text message sent to its spokesperson, Marilyn Ogar were not responded to. Efforts to reach the Chairman of the Newspaper Proprietors Association of Nigeria, Mr. Nduka Obaigbena, on the clampdown were unsuccessful as several calls put through to his mobile phone did not go through. A text message sent to his number was undelivered, with delivery status stating “pending.” so much for respecting press freedom by the jonathanian regime |

trillville: Bro, you misunderstood the Singapore scenario and their prime minister stance on the press which he overtime changed. The summary of his stance is thus; "It was always a fine balancing act, how to professionally serve our readers without appearing to undermine policy."...The press wasn't suppressed par say but were forced to place patriotism above partisanship and profit... http://www.straitstimes.com/news/singapore/more-singapore-stories/story/press-freedom-was-fine-balancing-act-mr-lee-kuan-yew-201 |
