Newspaper Editor Picked Up By State Security Service by pyramid253(m): 8:15pm On Dec 21, 2009 |
The State Security Services (SSS), at 10 a.m. today picked up Ahmed Shekarau, the editor of Peoples Daily, a newspaper based in Abuja. An email from Abdullzeez Abdullahi, a colleague of Mr. Shekarau, stated that the three officers of the SSS who came to pick up Mr. Shekarau “said that the SSS DG wanted to have a chat with him (Mr. Shekarau).” The men gave no further details. Mr. Abdullahi wrote that; “our belief however is that the invitation may be over the story of the succession battle for the VP’s slot in the event that Goodluck Jonathan becomes president. The story was published last Friday.” He said; “The Public Relations Officer of the SSS, Maryln Ogah said she would get back to us with some information but still hasn’t done so and is not picking calls to her phone.” http://234next.com/csp/cms/sites/Next/News/National/5500127-146/Newspaper_editor_picked_up_by_State.csp

I am not a media practitional and I have some issues with journalism in nigeria, BUT HALF A BREAD IS BETTER THAN NONE. They are thousand years better than our politicians, and without them we will not have any news, although the quality of their news is suspect, nonetheless we need freedom of speech for all citizens, any aggrieved person who think he has been slander by any media house can go to court. But to use state security to arrest journalist is going back to military days. IT IS COMPLETELY UNACCEPTABLE AND WE MUST PROTEST AGAINST IT. OTHERWISE THEY WILL START TO ARREST CITIZEN'S FOR BREATHING AIRS INTO OUR LUNGS. FAILED GOVERNMENT who should be telling us what happens to President for over 20days and why a governor of a state left his post running around the world to fix a 'dead horse' 1 Like 1 Share |
