Buhari Denies Barring AIT, Blames Overzealous Aides by illiad1(m): 6:56am On Apr 30, 2015
Nigeria’s president-elect
Muhammadu Buhari, has
instructed all his staff, including
the personnel attached directly to
him, to steer clear of all dealings
with the media, and leave all
media affairs to his official media
team.

In a statement in Abuja on
Wednesday, April 29, by the
Directorate of Media and
Publicity of the APC Presidential
Campaign Council, Mr. Buhari
aligned himself with the
pronouncement of his party, the
All Progressives Congress, APC
which had earlier expressed
disagreement with the temporary
barring of the African
Independent Television (AIT)
from covering his activities.
“I would like everyone to
henceforth stay within his/her
defined area of responsibility,”
Mr. Buhari said.

The president-elect added that his
media team should be left to
continue to deal with their media
colleagues in the best possible
way.
According to the statement, Mr.
Buhari was neither consulted nor
informed about the AIT barring,
and only became aware of the
matter after the public uproar it
generated.
“The time of CHANGE has
come,” he said, “and we must
avoid making the same mistakes
that the outgoing government
made.”

They are still exhibiting their triumphalism. most of them are on Nairaland, trying so hard to make us believe buhari will do and undo.

If buhari act the way some folks react here, his government will end before it even begins.

He has to be careful with such aides. They can lead to the downfall of his government. Most Nigerian governments are led to destruction by such aides and sycophants.

That is why I love this man. Despite the fact that they are his aides, he still condemns their act of vendetta.

Sadly, you are right.
Some change-agents are extreme Buharists angry
In truth, I see no distinction between that lot and the "GEJ till 2039" crew.

Now where do your ideological leanings place you? tongue

Bros they can issue denial till 2019, all I know is that Alhaji Muhammmadu Buhari was FULLY aware but only trying to do fire damage. They wanted to use AIT to test the waters to see if they will have their way in preparation of a more tougher sanction against the press.

What waters was gej testing with this?

Four journalists with the Leadership Newspapers were on
Monday detained at the Force headquarters, Abuja over a
story published by the medium last week, but two were
released around 8pm.
The journalists, Mrs. Chinyere Fred-Adegbulugbe, Mr. Tony
Amokeodo, Mr. Chibuzor Ukaibe, and Mr. Chuks Ohuegbe,
had reported at the Force Headquarters on invitation by the
police, but were not allowed to leave after writing
statements.
The police had summoned the journalists over a story titled,
‘Outrage Trails Presidential directive on Tinubu, APC,’
published by Leadership Newspapers last week.

THE Lagos and Abuja offices of Vintage Press
Limited, publishers of The Nation came under
siege yesterday. Four senior editors and other
employees were arrested by security operatives
from the Force CID, Alagbon, Lagos.
Nine detectives, led by Mr. Emma Ogolo,
stormed the Lagos office in two vehicles (a
white-colour Rover Sport Utility Vehicle (SUV),
marked PFN 357 B and a blue-colour Peugeot
504 Salon car, marked 2413 B)
