We all know how Sahara reporters became popular. In the immediate past administration, they were known for their eye-catching news headlines. No week went by without their sensational news headlines gracing the front pages of newspapers (and nairaland as well). No arrests were made, No corruption charges were hung on their necks. Instead, they helped paint an image that Jonathan and his administration were corrupt demons who had to be forced out by all means.

and the headline that Sahara Reporters' owner has been arrested.


This is what we warned about before the elections, but you guys refused to listen. Notice how all major new/media agencies have been silenced?

Keep calm, buhari is just starting.

.

At least, under GEJ's administration, we could wail and curse and insult on social media and nairaland.

Try it now, dss and police would come knocking on your door.


Not for me though, na yankee i dey

serves him right.You campaigned for change and change you have gotten.The lying publisher got what he deserved.I hope the gays at kirikiri take care of his lying ass in jail

I knew it would come to this "attack on free speech" nonsense. Yele was arrested for money laundering, he was even ratted out by one Fadoju guy (according to reports) so don't blame this despotic and evil junta for Yele's woes

They thought it was fun

Good for him
what you soil is what you reap
Watery beans awaits him.
Take him away

sowore is corrupt!! he blackmail people to make a leaving!! let the fool taste what he force down people's throats

Nothing like free speech o. You have freedom of speech but no freedom after speech against this government. I wonder when God will use his spiritual cane to flog some useless people that think they brought themselves to power.....

If you don't have sense others do ..So it's just a coincidence that days after he rats out Aisha ,an old case file is suddenly dusted and becomes active .. İf you are not being paid upto 5000 dollars a month for selling your soul then I pity You

Good for him unless he was impartial and not favouring BUbu While he was painting Gej bad.

More beans to sowore's plate in kirikiri!

Na odi Kwa serious.
I should be careful on my comments o!
#ThisIsNotGEJ

Tinubu's mouthpiece silenced

Na wetin fit Nigerians nah. Waiting for DSS to start arresting people that complain of hardship.
Lai Mohammed is now officially our media piece, anything he says is the truth.

AS SOON AS HE COMES OUT FROM JAIL, DON'T BE SURPRISED IF SOWORE BECOMES THE BIGGEST SUPPORTER OF NNAMDI KANU. IN LIFE, SOMETIMES AND FOR SOME PEOPLE, THEY HAVE TO EXPERIENCE SOMETHING DIRECTLY BEFORE THEY WAKE UP AND STAND FOR THE TRUTH. I'M AN IPOB, AND I DON'T THE ARREST OF SOWORE!

Was free speech ever alive? The media were also subject to intimidation by government officials during GEJ's era. There are numerous stories of journalists receiving threats or being picked up by security officials for questioning.

Also, much of what appears in the media is proxy for battles between political factions. Sowore is probably a victim of conflict within APC.

free speech is not silenced but propaganda from unknown source no adress sowoore operates in hiding with no adress and cant be sued! but now that he had been smoked out, let him account for his actions

Very apt and straightforward. Buhari is indeed just starting.
