I insist, the DSS has the right to investigate and even detain anyone in matters concerning national security.

Their mode of operation doesn't need to be subtle or pretty. They have to get the job done.

All these brickbats on the person of the president isn't new.

As all before it, this too shall pass.

Today’s punch editorial and decision to henceforth refer to Buhari as a General really unsettled the presidency. The way some of the president’s aides have been reacting to it since morning showed that punch really punched the president below the belt.

Personally, I think the president opened up himself to the attack. He could have played the role of a sensitive leader when DSS carried out their deadly attack on the court by dissociating himself from the irresponsible action and ordering the immediate release of Sowore. Instead of doing the right thing, he backed up DSS in their show of shame.

Malami’s attempt to order a probe into the incident today is a face saving afterthought that is too little and too late. The president needs to start listening to better advisers going forward. The sycophantic aides he has surrounded himself with obviously doesn’t mean well for him and the image of his government.

What is more embarrassing than open display of disrespect to the judiciary, the last hope of the common man.

...and what could be more embarrassing than a renowned professor of law still working for a man under whose supervision the court of law was desecrated.

We know it isn't easy to talk while eating but the respected prof still has the opportunity to redeem his image before it becomes too late.

Hizzy:
Buhari as a General go soon circumcised Punch.
Even our Ogah Mighty Kanu ran away talk more of punch.
Buratai go soon reason una matter Although they're too small for Buratai na Mamman Daura go tell DSS director and they will Close down punch and Gaba shahu or Onuchi go come speak one grammar and that's all
Na only talk we go talk for Nairaland, Twitter and Facebook.
Who go protest when Buratai de vex

Who is talking? A SAN who supported maze theft. An old man who's comments on national affairs have left people confused as to where his pains are from. It is either senility or one of the problems of people getting promoted beyond their abilities. Yet, some may see him as a professional praise singer, who works day and night with the tag of a SAN to get some more from the crumps off his master's table. But, whichever, he hardly even deserves any gratification of comments, if not that as an elder he has crossed the boundary of praise singing and is now (as a SAN) acting like a man who's house is on fire and elected to pursue rats. How on earth could a SAN be speaking from two sides of his mouth over an invasion of a court by the state secret service or a nation's consistent refusals to obey court order? Does his own SAN know so much that he has suddenly discovered that rule of law means nothing? Or, is it still the scourge of ethnic politics of Urhobo versus Ijaw? Well, whichever way, he has shown himself as nothing but a demagogue.

sonogo:
You must support Buhari or you die ooo sycophant

mauchiz:
They should sanction from being a San, revoke his licence and ban him for life.

sassysure:
Can't Buhari for once address Nigerians when things go wrong like this?
Why is he always non chalant and so insensitive?

Have never seen a proud fellow like this man.

ndcide:
Looks like some of the Buharideens in the south west have joined their eastern counterparts against Buhari... So funny.



The SE should know that this sudden attack on Buhari is not because they believe in your ideas.... It's simply a feeling of suspicion in the power arrangement, as some SW people are now taking the political bullets. (you know what I mean) and their attempt to rally support for Sowore, especially for the mockery they get, on this issue.


Don't fall for the scam of the seeming fight against injustice.

Remember that this injustice had always been and they applauded it.

Check their commentaries and editorials on previous issues of injustices.

Check the analysis of their political commentators, when the houses of Judges were invaded at night.

Check their analysis when some sections of the country were excluded from vital appointments. They said you schemed your selves out for power because of your hate for Buhari. They said you played politics of hate.

How many of their commentators talked about federal character and equity.

Remember those who justified the tagging of a section of the country 5%. They never fought for INJUSTICE at that time.

Remember the Operation Crocodile smile and Python dance. They never spoke up against such injustice.

Remember that whenever you spoke, they accused you of corruption. "corruption fighting back"
They never saw injustice in all of these

I don't need to continue because I believe you know these things.

Half a word, is enough for the wise.

Speaking with our correspondent, Sagay said by its action, PUNCH has shown utter disrespect to not only President Muhammadu Buhari but the entire presidency and the sovereignty of Nigerians.

LZAA:

Mental
U can't claim to be a Democrat and act like a dictator
Abacha tried it and the west eliminated him through arafat
Punch actually hailed this man as a saviour and even insulted the se and ss
Now as a bro said that the sw is seeing what we have been saying about north never handing power to them,their eye don clear
Well it is well
The descent into the abyss has just started
Enjoy the ride
Immhotep and GMBuharii must hear this
Cc Afamed helinues greenback iammo

BabaRamota1980:
Never hand power to them but SE continues to shout support for North in 2023.
