The Newspaper Proprietors’ Association of
Nigeria has given reasons why it collected
N120m from the office of the embattled
former National Security Adviser, Col. Sambo
Dasuki (retd.).
It said its members whose newspapers were
impounded by military personnel decided to
jettison the idea of suing the Federal
Government for the incident after the
government agreed to a out of court
settlement.
NPAN stated this in a communiqué issued
at the end of its Executive Council meeting
in Lagos on Thursday, December 17, to
address the issues bordering on the
compensation which had generated
controversy.
According to NPAN, members of the
association suffered huge losses in sales,
advertising revenue and business goodwill
by the military seizure of newspapers
between Friday, June 6 and Sunday, June 8,
2014 in Abuja , Oyo, Ondo, Edo, Ekiti, Delta,
Niger, Kogi, Kano, Kaduna, Plateau, Benue,
Imo, and Enugu states.
It added that many NPAN members affected
by the assault considered court actions
especially as the military authorities claimed
that they had intelligence that newspaper
vans were being used to ferry bomb-making
materials.
“Amidst this tension, and perhaps to stem
the spate of multiple litigation against the
security agencies and the Federal
Government, the then President Goodluck
Jonathan, decided to hold a meeting with
the executives of NPAN on June 12, 2014,
at the State House, Marina, Lagos.
“At this meeting, the President apologised
for the infraction of press freedom and the
disruption of the business rhythm of our
members. This was well received by our
members. In recognition of the President’s
gesture, one of our executive officers, Lady
Maiden Ibru, spoke in favour of the
association dropping the demand for
compensation. But because some members
wanted to seek redress in court, it was
decided to pursue a civil resolution of the
matter,” NPAN added.
The association further stated that having
agreed with the Federal Government to settle
the matter out of court, its members were
consequently requested to submit a
statement of their losses for consideration.
It stated, “All active member newspapers
submitted their claims, with some as low as
a few hundred thousand naira and others
running into hundreds of millions. With no
easy way to verify these widely divergent
claims, the association leadership accepted
the offer from the government, of a flat rate
of N10m to each of the 12 media houses
affected. The total amount came to N120m.
Most of our members duly collected the
compensation in good faith. Meanwhile, the
cheques for The Guardian, Tribune and
Peoples Daily, are still with our secretariat.”
Also, the association added that its member
newspapers that received the money could
not have any suspicion why it was paid from
the office of the former NSA since the
onslaught was carried out by the security
forces which the office of the NSA
superintended.
While saying that it was unfortunate that
some people with modicum facts about the
matter were linking it with the alleged
misdeeds of those who might have received
huge sums of money from the office of the
NSA unlawfully, NPAN assured Nigerians
that the trust reposed in the media remains
unshaken.
The communiqué listed those who attended
the meeting to include Mr. Sam Amuka (Life
Patron, NPAN), Mallam Ismaila Isa (Life
Patron, NPAN), Chief Segun Osoba( Past
President, NPAN) and Mr. Ray Ekpu (Past
President, NPAN).
