Femi Adesina Reacts As Punch Calls Buhari 'Major General' by lalasticlala(m): 10:41am On Dec 11, 2019 |
President Buhari's special adviser on Media and Publicity, Femi Adesina has reacted after The PUNCH newspaper vowed to address President Buhari as Major General. The PUNCH wrote: As a symbolic demonstration of our protest against autocracy and military-style repression, PUNCH (all our print newspapers, The PUNCH, Saturday PUNCH, Sunday PUNCH, PUNCH Sports Extra, and digital platforms, most especially Punchng.com) will henceforth prefix Buhari’s name with his rank as a military dictator in the 80s, Major General, and refer to his administration as a regime, until they purge themselves of their insufferable contempt for the rule of law. https://punchng.com/buharis-lawlessness-our-stand/ Here is Femi Adesina's reaction to the Punch ANOTHER TESTIMONY TO PRESS FREEDOM IN NIGERIA, BY PRESIDENCY https://m.facebook.com/story.php?story_fbid=2166287733666357&id=1452287068399764 33 Likes 11 Shares

In as much as vigilance and ventilation are needed to keep our democracy alive, the simple truth is that the real situation is very far from the picture Punch Newspaper is painting. There is freedom of speech in Nigeria and on daily basis tens of anti-government and extremely anti-Buhari articles get published in both print and online media. If there wasn't, staunch critics like Femi Fani Kayode with all his misleading, mischievous and insulting posts would have been in jail. Unfortunately, DSS personnel got carried away in their bid to tame the defiant Yele Sowore that they tactlessly played into his original intention of making himself a hero of democracy by that act of gangsterism in court premises. Now, the enemies of government including displaced and embittered PDP moneybags have subtly moved into action to discredit Buhari's administration in both local and international media. To counter this dangerous development, I think government should reach out to critical civil society stakeholders to restate its commitments to democratic principles. However, one thing is certain, because Buhari's presidency is very NECESSARY for the INEVITABLE disruptions of the existing political and economic orders that will make way for new orders, it will survive this onslaught like the ones that came in the past. 125 Likes 17 Shares |

Clearly Femi Adesina is trying to manage the situation by painting a good picture out of it but irrespective of his attempt, the Punch group are making a solid statement. Should other media houses follow their track we'll be heading to a "check and balance government". Thumbs up to the Punch news outlet. 689 Likes 57 Shares |

Going by past records of Military rule and democracy rule in Nigeria, everyone believes Nigeria achieved more during the military rule. It was a sad day 62 Likes 4 Shares

Nigerians are not grateful, when Jonathan was in power most people said he is too weak against corruption which paved way for Buhari Administration where the fight against corruption better than his predecessor. If u think Buhari is not doing it right let's wait for 2023 when a weaker vessel like Jonathan will take power and the corruption continues but if He Buhari said no am not leaving. BOOM!!! Welcome to Complete Military rule Nigerians Don't even need weak President like Buhari 8 Likes 3 Shares |

Femi Adeshina, you are such a disgrace. This is the weak rebuttal you can come up with. Apart from the name reference, what of the other points raised in Punch's article, most especially the issue of human right abuse? Why did you not address that? Buhari attained the rank of Major General by quota system. He did not earn it. I'l rather refer to him as a sergeant, yes Sergeant Muhammadu Buhari. SERGEANT MUHAMMADU BUHARI 281 Likes 16 Shares |
