obailala: since when did elements of truth become truth ? at least you recognise some of their stories are ridiculous. well I wont say they are 80 % correct most of the time as you asserted, but if it is, those eighty % correctness is nothing but elements of truth, this I find disturbing. what the devil told eve in the garden was not a lie, it was just a story with elements of truths. I want to assume you know the story about half truths. what L. Monica told the press about president Clinton was not a lie what she told was stories with elements of truth, the basis on which ken saro wiwa was killed was not a lie, it was a story with elements of truth. my point is, the greatest deceits in history where all delivered with elements of truth. when u said I now have a different opinion because I love the president, well yes I love the president but not anymore than I love you. I try to be as objective as I can and I know many here will agree with me that Sahara reporters lost it somewhere along the line. I will beg you not to go categorising everyone that doesn't follow the trend of throwing stones at the presidents as fans of his, if the president errs I will put it as best I can constructively not destructively. in my humble opinion which I believe I am entitled to Sahara reporters have been trying to give the dog a bad name so that when it is finally hanged eye brows wont be raised. 1 Like |

Quick research on the pierre hotel tells me that the president isn't even staying in the presidential suite, that costs $20k a night, there is actually no room at the pierre that costs 10k a night, so something is fishy somewhere. |

Mahatma Ghandi:I can't agree with you more that half truths could be very dangerous but when we unfortunately live in a society where no truth exists, you will be left with no choice but to accept the half truths and then make what you can of it with your own wisdom. The fact remains that if Sahara Reporters did not raise this issue, no single media organisation in Nigeria would have been bold enough to mention it and consequently, Nigerians would have been oblivious of this profligacy. Yes we know SR could sometimes blow issues out of proportion so when I read their stories, I use my wisdom to moderate some of their figures. For instance, GEJ may not have taken a 600-man delegation but based on the SR story and the shallow defence of Mr Abati, I can bet you that delegation will not be less than 200. ...And just to clarify something, a critic of the government reserves the right to be either constructive or destructive. All that matters is that the criticism knocks the government to order. 2 Likes |

obailala: The way you post incredibly ignorant statements is alarming. Destructive criticism does not know the government to order. It destroys the country and everything that is in it, including you and the community you live in. Some of you have taken your ignorance to a whole new level. Which investor will want to come to Nigeria if all they read is Sahara Reporters? How will the power sector reforms and privatization have gotten to this level if all they read is Sahara Reporters? How do you hope to achieve Eko Atlantic is all foreigners read is Sahara Reporters? In one breath you go about slagging off the country and pulling it down, in another breath, you go around asking them to come and invest in your mega city. You cannot eat your cake and have it. You folks have become the proverbial child that vows his mother would not sleep. How will you ever see sleep too? 1 Like |

Re: Jonathan Not In New York With 600-man Delegation – Abati by drnoel: 1:56pm On Sep 23, 2013 |
take dat: Why is Abati jogging down a beaten path? Rehashing worn out lies and playing a semantic game of rhetorical obfuscation. How many people traveled along side the President? How many ministers and state governors traveled with him? Are the ministers and governors with their own aides too? How many are the few essential staff? How many were in the advanced team? SR has its own failings but never trust an ornamented turncoat.Allow him let him do his job. As long as he is on the right path what do we care but if he misses his steps and derails then u can tear him apart, we won't stop ya. |

According to Abati, the truth is that less than 30 persons arrived in New York with the President this morning as members of his entourage. Other than them, the only other persons who are in New York for the UN General Assembly with the President’s knowledge and approval are relevant ministers and few essential aides. Walahi these few essential aides and their girl friends fit reach 7000 sef. 2 Likes |

gerald09: Honestly, I've given up on some of these 'critics'. So they actually expect Jonathan the stay at the same $300 a night hotels that you and I stay in in New York and elsewhere? Do they even realise what it means to be the president of Africa's most populous nation, second largest economy, and biggest oil and gas producer? I mean, sometimes it's probably just best to ignore them. Oh and SAHARA REPORTERS, IF HE WENT TO NY WITH 60,000 FOLKS it's his prerogative as the president, and if you have a problem, go jump in the FCKING lagoon. 3 Likes |

Abati should have come up with a more believable reply. You debunk allegations with verifiable facts and figures and not with vague info. Maybe he is tired. |

take dat: You are quick to ask for proof when GEJ is concerned but quick to pass judgment if it was the opposition. D only tin Abati is challenging is d number of delegates which simply means evryoda allegation(s) is true |

dridowu: I neva 4 1ce belive ds 600 delegation but i want to belive that d number is higher than the 30 membersThat is the problem and the mainly of Jonathan and his turn-coats like Abati. The only way you refute an allegation is through facts and figures. Like someone said, the last time Abati promised us the official list of Nigerian junket, many months has passed and we are still waiting. Even if Sahara reporters are wrong, how on earth someone like me will believe Abati, going by his past record of producing the fact? He is hoping like in the past, this will just go away until next time. During the olympic or commonwealth games, Nigerian officials travels with their wives, let alone the president. People like Abati should know that days are gone when his moribund newspapers dictates the news and tell it as they sees fit. |

taharqa: Just hear yrself: so Destructive criticism 'knocks the Govt to order'?... Too many DONKEYs around *smh*As long as Nigeria is concerned, no criticism can be viewed as destructive, as past record shows that we are always right after all with our suspicion of them. Jonathan government from day one, has problem with facts and figures or telling the truth. How can we forget Abati and his truth about Mrs Jonathan resting abroad on holiday and Sharareporters as liars, only for her to tell us months later that she has been resurrected from the dead? And Abati still kept his job. Tell me which country in a democracy that will keep him after that blatant lies to the nation you supposed to be serving? |

taharqa: Just hear yrself: so Destructive criticism 'knocks the Govt to order'?... Too many DONKEYs around *smh*It seems like the word 'destructive' gets you excited in a negative way. I suggest you study the true meaning of destructive criticism especially in the political arena. Imagine a child in primary school scores 0% in a test and the teacher calls the child a good for nothing 'olodo.' That may sound dumb on the teacher's part but there is no denying the fact that the embarrassment could likely knock the child to order... This is a petty example of destructive criticism. As I rightly said earlier, inasmuch as we all know it's better to criticise constructively, everyone reserves a right to choose how they wish to criticise and I also still maintain that in certain issues, destructive criticism could produce positive results. theoctopus:Same as above, I suggest you study the true meaning and applications of destructive criticism in politics. So because we want a good international image and foreign investors then you expect Nigerians to see black and call it white?.. This may be expedient in some cases but if you expect every Nigerian to always cover up our mess even while we choke, then the nation will be doomed in no time (I trust our leaders to accelerate the process). |
