GMB's Verdict On 'AIT' Justified By Nigerians by Sirniyeh(m): 5:07pm On May 01, 2015 |
RESPONSES FROM NIGERIANS I notice the hypocrisy of the Jonathanians on Buhari's decision on AIT. In 2013 two Leadership newspaper reporters were detained for days for publishing a presidential directive. Guess who was president then? In 2011 six reporters from The Nation newspaper were detained for publishing OBJ's letter to GEJ. Guess who was president then? In June 2014 men of the military & SSS seized and destroyed copies of major newspapers, stopping circulation. Guess who was president then? In March 2015 two Al Jazeera journalists covering elections were held in custody for weeks for no reason. Guess who was president then? In 2014 AIG Joseph Mbu ordered the arrest of AIT journalist Amaechi Anakwe for calling him controversial. Guess who was president then? I think the Jonathanians should just keep quiet. They do not have the moral virtue to jugde the rightness of principles or conducts. Florence Israel: YES. Its called 'Press Accreditation' and it means, if u are not needed, dont come. AIT know the rules. Even with President Jonathan's events, its only the accredited media that are allowed there. So AIT should shut their trash and hide their shameless face. They're a disgrace to the noble profession. Ayemere Ehinome Gcfr Capital Yes. I actually support and advocate shuting down AIT completely because the unprovocked lies they told about the general and his family was capable of setting this nation on fire. AIT chose money over profesionalism and ethics. When u accuse a man falsely of killing his wife and daughter, that's absolutely crossing the red line. I had to rate AIT 18+ on my tv to prevent my younger ones from watching the nonsense they were openly displaying. Adejo Bala A man can't wish you death in broad daylight and be a guest at your wedding,.. AIT is not media outlets but media branch of PDP, freedom of expression should not be mistaken for freedom to insult someone privacy!.. Yahaya Mohammed Yes, because AIT outrightly violates ethics of professional journalism Danjuma Mahmud Lawal Buhari did not ban AIT, and if he did, nothing bad for his safety. * In 2013, six reporters from d nation were detained for publishing Obj letter to GEJ. * In june 2014 men of d military and SSS seized and destroyed copies of major newspapers, stopping circulation. *In 2014, AIG Joseph Mbu ordered the arrest of AIT journalist Ameachi Anakwe for calling him controversial. *In march 2015, two Aljezeera journalists were held in custody for weeks for no reason. All these period I have mentioned, Jonathan was d president and no body crusify him. I don't know why this noise for barring AIT from covering Buhari's activities for security reason which Buhari came up to deny the knowledge of. To me every sin must be punished to serve as a lesson for others who may likely to be used against another party in time come. Ahmad Abdulrahman Jibrin I know they did alot of damages to our president elect, but i think they should continue to transmit his activities over the air, so that people will see the same AIT that was mocking him before are the same AIT showing his good deeds after, and people will realise the true meaning of change.. Prince Abisoye Abimbola Capital yes even president Obama ban fox Mariah Anyamele If someone falsely accuses me and mislead people who are ignorate of the truth of killing my wife and injecting my child with sicklecell and others I will do same. Shame on Dokpesi, Amir Salisu King Jr. Yes... They should be ban for being partisan. They're a disgrace to the profession journalism Mohammed Inuwa Awwal Yes for security reasons, remember AIT Boss was linked to first October Abuja Bombardment Bassey Okon Bassey Point of information, General Buhari says he didn't sanction or ban AIT or any other media outfit in the country so stop misinforming the people please. Magnus Chukwuma AIT deserved more than what GMB gave them.they displayed the worst partician ever. For months now I stopped watching AIT an arm of PDP. |

It's a pity you do not understand the implications of that ban on AIT. That if it is allowed to hold, Nigeria will plunge back to those dark days of decree 4. Pls just use your free data to read a part of the constitution that covers fundamental human right and the FOI Act. There you will understand why your Buhari had to deny ever giving such order. |

psucc: You are making mistake. You are making reference to portion of human right in the constitution. Remember that I owe every right to my privacy. If you are not allowed to my room, no crime in it. It is not a must for AIT to force itself into the terrain where not permitted. Inspite of human right, Every media house must seek permission before coverage. That's why you hear secret meetings everywhere. 1 Like |

There again you got it all wrong. If you want to keep your privacy, don't make yourself a public figure. Since the day, Buhari vied for the Presidency, he had been 'stripped' of that privacy hence anyone can use his image without recourse to getting permission. Why is he specifically skeptical of AIT. |

Sirniyeh:We now all know, this is an incoming opposition propaganda. GMB didnt ban AIT, he actually rolled out the red carpet with full works for them Though not true, but if were to be, it would have kind of be akin to when Alex Ferguson boycotted BBC He lifted his ban on talking to the BBC after 7 years of avoiding post-match interviews Or Sam Allardyce and Harry Redknapp, both who decided to decline to be interviewed by BBC after the Panorama investigation into alleged malpractice in football transfers |

Sirniyeh: You are making a big mistake my friend. The day you vie for public office to be paid with public funds you loss the right to privacy Read the public service rule, Constitution and freedom of information bill PEACE |
Re: GMB's Verdict On 'AIT' Justified By Nigerians by MuttleyLaff: 5:25pm On May 04, 2015 |
dazdilijae:No he is not making a big mistake Though we've come to know it isnt true Whether vied for public office, getting paid with public funds, losing the right to privacy, in America, even with its 1st Ammendment, the Clinton administration, the Bush administration with the few odd Governors and even the current POTUS and FLOTUS do get to tell reporters what not to do, where to eff of, when to jump in the lake etc |
