OEPHIUS: If there's any conspiracy at all, it would be between the media and the Nigerian Government...not the APC. The APC isn't the one promulgating a war against Boko Haram. The service chiefs are soldiers and not politicians and the poor soldiers been killed at the frontline aren't members of any political party. Reducing these unfortunate calamities to the level of party politics is highly disrespectful to the troops, especially those of them who have died in the ongoing campaign against terrorism. The Federal Government under President Buhari have so far failed to do their jobs and should be called out for their failure, just like the last government was. That said, I think the media needs to ramp up its game as far as reporting the ongoing war against Boko Haram. A situation where foreign News outlets like Reuters, CNN, AP, Al Jazeera, and the likes have their correspondents embedded with the troops at the frontlines of the war, while our journalists report hearsay news from their studios in Lagos and Abuja is an aberration. The Nigerian media need to tell the stories of these valiant soldiers who daily pay the supreme sacrifice for the safety and unity of the country in such a way that they don't end up playing to the agenda of the terrorists which is to spread fear, tension and mistrust across the land. Publicity is the oxygen that terrorists need to further their agenda. Am I by this encouraging the apparent media blackout of the Boko Haram crisis? HELL NO! All I am saying is that the media needs to evolve a better way of reporting same story such that it highlights the bravery of the soldiers who stood and fought to the last despite the dearth of quality weapons supply from the government. For instance, when a Newspaper leads with a headline like "Boko Haram Overruns Military Base...Kills 100 soldiers! Others Flee!" like you will read in the average Nigerian Newspaper, it goes a long way in furthering the agenda of the terrorists. It spreads fear and impugns the courage and sacrifice of those soldiers that most likely stood and fought till the last. The ones that are left become demoralised and lose the will to continue. Sometimes, beyond the guns and other weapons of war, all a soldier has is his morale. When that is lost, ALL IS LOST! Bottomline, the Nigerian Media needs to raise its game in order to become more relevant in the scheme of things. 2 Likes |

This is all about money. The newspapers are not making enough money and if they can get sponsored front pages, they will jump at it. Quite sad about the soldiers. May their souls rest in peace. |

Iamgrey5:that is the way the world is today. even apc did it before they came to power. what happened to the numerous condolences they were sending through the media in 2014? the point is that, you don't hide the death of a soldier because of politics. a soldier deserve his respect. how is honoring their death an information that can jeopardize national security? I don't like Nigeria soldiers but truth is always Truth 1 Like |

Who doesn't know our media has been gagged? Although sometimes I find it hard to feel for our military. A university student of UNIJOS was killed in by dis same military nd up till today, d media didn't do much about it. It wldnt hv been same b4. First, d media wld hv asked why there was no enough security in des students' hostel up until d time d students got attacked nd in d process of defending demselves, d military came to show demselves.... D media has been gagged nd it's going to affect eveybdy soon. As for Sebastian Maimako, your acts re being recorded. A time wld come when dey wld ask you to work for Lalong and Buhari nd you'ld run. 2 Likes 1 Share |

Iamgrey5: You're talking absolute nonsense. By not reporting Boko Haram's growing menace, the local media is helping the useless Buhari and his disgusting party APC claim success on the fight against the terrorists, and use it as a campaign tool - to claim that Boko Haram has been better dealt with by Buhari than the previous regime. And you want us to be cool with that? Na God go punish you. Bloody Buhari sympathiser. 3 Likes |

Hedonini: 1. We see and read news reports about BH atrocities everyday so any claim otherwise is a reflection of your own intellectual laziness and poor consumption of current affairs. 2. The FG doesn't control the media or dictate editorial decisions and every info including the latest attack on our troops I read came from the Nigerian news media. 3. Sadly, you people care less when the same Nigerian military kill BH terrorists via successful military operations, all you cry and excite yourself over is when we tragically lose heroes in the fight against terrorism because your are anti Nigerian and sadists. 4. We are dealing with this menace today because your PDP uncles were too useless and incompetent to deal with and eradicate BH. 5. Under PDP, BH flourished, they bombed willingly all over the country, including in Abuja the seat of power in Nigeria just a few miles from Aso Rock, but what the GEJ do? He ignored his dead dozens of innocent Nigerians and flew to Kano do dance azonto. 6. The same GEJ approved and stole $2.7 billion NSA anti BH and terror fund, instead of buying weapons, he gave our $2.7 billion to Dasuki/ATM to share with his PDP looting and stealing gang. 7. Under GEJ, BH was blowing up Nigerians left and right and even in control of Nigerian territory with their flags planted everywhere, but such is not the case today. You evil wishing, unpatriotic and anti Nigerian element losers can not re-write history or negate our successes against BH, we have facts and history on our side. 1 Like 1 Share |

I have no time to waste with any Sai Baba buffoon who is despicable enough to make excuses for Buhari and APC on a matter like Boko Haram.... There are more casualties of Boko Haram in Buhari's 3 years, then there was in Jonathan's 5 years, yet the media is mute about it, and zombies like you would rationalise it. You're beyond redemption.

noturbusiness: Don't mind that guy you quoted, he is one of the lapdogs of this administration and can never see anything wrong with what they do. I don't know why the party of vipers APC would be afraid of the same poison they dished out to the public against the last administration. They were very happy to capitalize on the boko haram war to win the election by claiming they will do what they cannot do. Now that its obvious they have failed beyond measure they now want to censor the news to hide their gargantuan failure. I remember during the Iraq war after the days news the pictures of soldiers that died that day are displayed on the screen and a moment of silence held for them by most media news agencies then but down here not only are they kept secret they will just be buried like chickens without any form of dignity. Yet they died fighting for the country and that is the best way the shithole country can honour them. Everything is just wrong with this country and I just want to let those wicked people that are supporting this evil regime to know that they are not innocent of the blood(both military and civilian) that has been shed by this administration since they want it to continue. In due course their just rewards will be upon them cos that wild beast you are nurturing today will devour you tomorrow. 1 Like |

Newpride: It is not fake news. In the Sunday night attack, BH killed over 90 soldiers including 2 senior officers. By Monday, the Army sent a reinforcement from Baga to recover the truck and heavy tanks taken from Maitele by BH, these ones were ambushed and over 50 soldiers killed and a Major captured alive. |
