I did..you wouldn't believe it. It was the funniest thing I heard in my entire lifetime. It was even funnier because Amaechi and co were standing there keeping straight faces and nodding their heads. Lol

Or why your pancreas hurt when you laugh too much?


Oga stop lying you can't laugh for 2hrs

Leopard cannot lose its spots..

Let me see who will write again, " Pls I am hungry, I don't have a job, my girlfriend left me "...

The question is, " Who did you vote in 2019 February elections " ?

May the God who have power reward every one in this country according to our work

Forget the event that led to his arrest. He has been granted bail, why is he still in DSS custody. It's Sowore today, it could be you tomorrow.

He called for a revolution


That's a very big crime

Buhari is running a strange type of voodoo govt.

A reincaneted "Idi Amin" on the Nigerian throne, but God is greater.

Well said

samdigo90:
The Washington post released an article condemning Muhammadu Buhari today over the continued detention of Sahara Reporter's Omoyele sowore. See article below:

Meaning

God Bless you for shutting up the insensitive guy that pulled up irrelevant cases. It's Sowore today, it could be anybody tomorrow. Why should a Govt agency be against the rule of law. Let's forget the event that led to his arrest. He has been granted bail and he has met his bail conditions, then free him.

America has ignored court orders citing national security


Guessing that is DSS argument


National security is greater than any Court order, talk to any lawyer near you

Sorry Bro, National Security is not greater than the rule of law. Buhari said this sometimes last year and many lawyers corrected him. Push your national security breach pieces of evidence to the court and prove to the judge beyond a reasonable doubt so that bail will not be approved cos once the Judge approves bail and the conditions are met, the defendant must be released

I do not support Sowore, one bit. I think he should be held accountable for being a key part of the bridge foisted this proven despotic regime on Nigeria due to his hate of GEJ and what GEJ represented. His Sahara Reporters was an efficient Buhari/El Rufai/APC campaign tool.?Accountability is important. I am sure he would agree with me.

However, regardless of the individual, I am objective enough to find inaccuracies and lies reprehensible- hence my response to the fellow that alleged that WaPo kept quiet on Khashoggi. That is a blatant lie as Khashoggi was a WaPo associate staff. They have written countless articles for Khashoggi, unlike them.

I am also a believer in the rule of law and despite my belief that accountability is supreme in life, the rule of law is sacrosanct. As the courts have asked that he be released, I will support any move to prevail on the despotic regime he foisted on Nigerians to release him.

America does it regularly


Go and read about Patriot Act

Eteka1:
They didn't condemn the Saudis for killing Saudi critic Jamal Khassogi and dissolving his body in acid before pouring it down the drains in their embassy in Turkey.
They didn't condemn the witchhunt of journalist Julian Assange for exposing the evil deeds of the American military.
They didn't condemn the witch hunt of whistleblowers like Edward Snowden, Bradley Manning etc.

oga she na back of TV u dey watch for can or BBC ni? when did they not condemn it?? una go just talk anyhow cos u think say people no get dstv for d3m house ....oshisko........i support buhari both terms and that man now is tyrant....

FrLukas:
You probably misplaced your thinking cap. Look for it. Put it on. Then come back and comment.

you are not making sense! and you are the part of Nigeria problems.

You are right but do we have a form of "Patriot Act" in our own law

Don't mind their rantings like they are talking to fools we all saw it coming. How can people be so naive, REvolution and you want an ex military man and a military sss to be clapping for you, please go try that in russia or china and ....

FrLukas:


Looking at Sowore's antecedents, I know Sowore means well. The points he raised for the revolution bears witness to this.

Still he made some great blunders.

1. He should not have rushed the plan of a revolution. The only planned revolution that could have changed things would be not less than a million man strong. Not some few youths easily dispersed by rubber bullets and tear gas.

2. He should not have contested for any political office. He didn't realize that you can't be a politician and also an activist trying to change the political terrain.

3. He should NEVER have met or associated with Nnamdi Kanu, the known fugitive and rabble rouser.

Those were Sowore's blunders.

Also, it's difficult to fight for Nigerians. They will insult you and persecute you. They have fallen in love with their tormentors.

Fighting their tormentors is like fighting them.

Just leave them in peace to soak garri with their pains and sufferings.

Your last sentences caught my attention. I hope Sowore comes out from this unhurt, while finally realizing that Nigeria and Nigerians are not worth fighting for.

U lots quote America when u deem fit. Have u also forgotten that same America has 24/7 light?? Same America that their president doesn't travel to other countries just to rest, same America where rule of law is upheld...

Pls stop mentioning America when u want the narrative to suit u

Buhari till Buhari dies.
Goodluck Jonathan was insulted, hounded, harassed and even intimidated but no journalist was arrested or even refused bail under his regime
People like Sowore and Ibadan media outfit were flexing their muscle pen, now the chicken has come to roost.

Try get sense abeg and also educate yourself as well. Do your research and stop writing rubbish online. Without Sowore and Sahara Reporters, most likely Jonathan wouldn’t have been sworn in as interim President.

What are you talking sir? So you dont know the journalist killed by the Saudis was a reporter of this same newspaper? That the Saudis tried to destroy the owner of this newspaper (Jeff Bezos).

Get your facts right.

Dont mind these fake historians that cant even tell you the history of their village.
They dont know that unlike them, Sowore stands by principles, not personalities or cash

They did, you plank. In fact, Khasshogi worked for this same magazine. You're as dumb as Buhari, but I doubt it, Buhari is far too dumb.

By your comment i can tell that you live in a backwards society. calling for a revolution is not a crime in any western country yet alone any sane country in the world. please free yourself from mental slavery. because you are part of the problem.

That is reserved for hardened criminals of foreign countries arrested in foreign lands.

Their own citizens don't go off the grid. They are taken to court.

Stop proving KANU right. Nigeria is not a zoo.

I think Washington Post should write more of Trump's madness and let us sort ourselves out by ourselves.

People should please stop this nonsense of saying Sowore supported Buhari...and so? He did because that was the right thing to do at the time. I voted for this Buhari all the times he contested so I can be categorized with Sowore but we all make mistakes and learn from them.

This President is flaunting court orders, do you realize what that implies? The judiciary is the last hope of the common man and here is someone doing it with impunity. Imagine yourself in prison and the court grants you bail and some folk somewhere who thinks he is above the law deems it fit to overrule court orders.

The quest to ensure Sowore's release without prejudice means well for our democracy, please let us protect the only voice we have which is freedom of expression as enshrined in our constitution, freedom of expression in a peaceful protest is allowed anywhere in the world, why should Nigeria's case be different?

Please let's leave the messenger and stick with the message, you never can tell what tomorrow holds for any of us, we can find ourselves in this kind of situation and if we condone it, it just might boomerang, Sowore might not have realized this fact but we who are free should.
