Won't mind their business.... The one that is happening in their doormot them no send circular

Dumb assertion

It is so funny that with all these noise about the faulty elevator, nobody ever mention the country or the place where the incident happened but if it was in Nigeria, the place and location of the incident would have been boldly written just to label the country bad. Bunch of hypocrite

Taylor90:
Una never see anything

This one na preamble

Wait till he embarks on medical tour soonest because his battery should be at 8%

Na that time Shettima go take over

And watch how Boko Haram and bandits go use more people do barbecue

And economy will go down 8million feet deeper from the earth surface

Vote wisely vote wisely una say he built Lagos

Is this what you pray for yourself and your household?

JASONjnr:
Tinubu setting up his incompetent teams over a stolen mandate.....


A man that asked the FG to print more currencies and few weeks from there, Buhari did exactly that and we entered into inflation and still suffering it today ...

Probably he wanted more money so he can steal them and hid them for his ambition....

Let some youths keep fooling themselves and engaging in tribal slurs, instead of worrying about their state of origin and holding their leaders able.

Take or leave it, over 70 % of all state in Nigeria are having this same issues

It is not for nothing journalists are sometimes called news hunters. I wear the badge with pride, and I know my colleagues do too. For we really hunt – digging up facts, holding those in public positions able, dissecting their words and actions, suggesting alternatives. Now, the Minister of Information, Alhaji Lai Mohammed, has issued a fresh invitation to us. This one isn’t for the usual team he and the officials in his ministry are used to. This is more extensive. For by pushing two bills at the National Assembly that will further gag the press, he sent a combined invitation to the Nigerian Union of Journalists, Nigerian Guild of Editors, as well as the Newspaper Publishers Association of Nigeria.

I interrogate this invitation from two angles. The first addresses the reason the minister is trying to curtail the freedom of the press. The second is what news hunters and all their organisations should be doing with regard to the steps that the minister has taken. The first angle is located, and is actually informed by my academic background in Political Science. This makes me able to imagine what is in the head of a government that takes a step which amounts to provoking all journalists as one to resist it, and stalk its every step more than before; the Information Minister only happens to be the face of the government in this matter. Now, it’s known that all governments desire to maintain an upper hand over, or at least outmanoeuvre other influential voices in any polity among which are journalists.

In the past, we had demonstrated the extent of ground we could cover when we stood together. The government is wary of this because minds are involved. Get the mind of the populace firmly set against a government and the legitimacy of such a government is eroded. Meanwhile, governments everywhere can use state force to compel people, but they haven’t been able to really influence their minds as effectively as news hunters do. Nigeria’s Information Minister recognises this. So, the highly unpopular bills sent to the National Assembly are his contribution to the regime’s efforts to do what all governments do when they can.

In any democratic system, all forces or institutions are entitled to do what they can to have the upper hand. It’s about interest. What the Nigerian government is using the Information Minister to achieve is for the purpose of protecting its interest. It’s part of the political process. Up to that point, the minister is doing what his employers expect from him i.e. his own contribution on how to have an upper hand over any other influential voice such as the press. In the face of this onslaught, the other interests that may be on the receiving end are the ones that must not let down their guard. It was the veteran Yoruba Juju musician, Ebenezer Obey, who sang the song, “Ode to n’so Olodumare, ori egun lo ma ku si.” Roughly, it means the hunter who’s watching God should be prepared to remain at the stakes forever. The song is a reminder that all the bodies representing news hunters must remain ever vigilant. But exactly what is it that the Information Minister is trying to do? He already has so much power, but he wants to have more control over the very air that the press breathes.

There’s no doubt that the bills with the lawmakers will give more powers to the Minister of Information to control the conduct of print media houses and journalists. According to its Section 3 (c), the bill will, “with the approval of the minister in charge of information, establish and disseminate a National Press Code and standards to guide conduct of print media, related media and media practitioners. The minister will also approve penalties and fines against violation of the Press Code by print media houses and media practitioners, including revocation of license.” The minister is to consider applications for the establishment, ownership and operation of print media and other related media houses.

This bill also proposes punitive measures for media outlets and journalists that act contrary to its provisions. According to the bill, “when an offence under this section has been committed by an individual or a body corporate, such a person(s) or body corporate shall be deemed guilty of an offence and liable to be prosecuted against and be punished accordingly,” Section 3 further states that, “Where any person or body corporate has been convicted of this offence,” the erring journalists and media houses “shall be liable to a fine of five million naira only or three years imprisonment to the person or the promoter (in case of body corporate).” The bill also mandates media houses to be of the Press Council or be liable to “conviction or to a fine of five million naira or a term of three years imprisonment or both and to an additional fine of twenty thousand naira for every day the offence continues.”

Now, I move to the second angle to my response. As I’ve already stated, most governments would want to have an upper hand over other relevant voices in a polity. In the event, one major thing those being threatened have as a pillar of is what the Constitution provides for them to enjoy. We’re fortunate that even the current Nigerian Constitution hasn’t been completely sapped of its provisions that protect journalists. For instance, in the 1999 Constitution (as amended) Section 22 states that “the press, radio, television and other agencies of the mass media shall at all times be free to uphold the fundamental objectives contained in this chapter and uphold the responsibility and ability of the government to the people.” But through the Information Minister, the government is stepping in to take the freedom that the constitution gives us. It’s in this same constitution we have an instrument which we must use in fighting hard if the Information Minister mustn’t wage a one-man battle and prevail against all the bodies representing Nigerian journalists. So, the case we have in court is in order.

I encourage everyone to at least watch the video and decide for themselves what to believe.

If you try post the above video on Facebook, fb will not allow you, meaning they don't want it posted. Are you thinking what I'm thinking? They simply don't want the truth out

I never knew there were people as dumb as you are to believe in this trash. Buy only advice to you is to try as much as possible to visit one of the isolation centres for you to get infected of the virus for you to really understand how serious this issue is instead of you coming here with this dumb and unverified trash

sagitariusbaby:
What have they been waiting for before now? Delta with no case has been on total lock down since last week

Most you complain about every action of the government?
Edo state with 11 cases is yet to enforce a total lockdown till this moment

adexpa:
It is like the lady is more intelligent than your friend, maybe due to her profession. We can not write off disagreement in relationships and the best way to sort it is to hear individual out and reach agreement; I think that is the approach the lady adopted but because of the intelligence level of your friend he always tend to run away during conversations. I can not disagree with your friend if he can't handle her but he suppose have done that long ago, he can't tell us he just noticed the attitude but because of his selfish nature, he decided to carry on and enjoy the lady's money and time. 2yrs is much for serious minded fellow and it can not just be thrown away like that.

I think they can work things out if your friend love her. They can sit down and talk about what normally cause issues and talk about how they will be handling it ......the guy need more maturity to handle the intelligence of the lady.

It is low self esteem to assume that someone will sleep with her boss for promotion.... Police profession is decent except for those that wants to do trash and that happens in all professions

Running back to his weak ex is not the way out, that is just a cheap solution.

You have said it all

This is true but it doesn't just kill the mam like that but it start with making the children very sick if they have any

evansjeff:
What is wrong with this Obaseki? His speaker brought this virus to Edo state and it has continued to spread yet Obaseki has refused to do anything meaningful about the virus. Everyone is still going about their usual business. Even states with no cases have already declared total lock down. Edo now has 9 cases. We are watching.

He is playing politics with it hence he doesn't want to declare a total lockdown so that the people won't see him as being harsh on them because he can't afford the cost of the palliative for entire state

RIVERS State Governor, Nyesom Wike, has warned that there will be consequences if the Peoples Democratic Party succumbs to pressures from some “planted presidential aspirants” to move the party’s national convention away from Port Harcourt.

Wike also declared that the state would not any desperate PDP presidential aspirant, who was sabotaging the economy of the state by fighting the hosting of the party’s presidential primary in Port Harcourt.

The governor further warned that Rivers people would teach the party a bitter lesson if it (PDP) allowed planted desperate presidential aspirants to scuttle the hosting of the presidential primary in Port Harcourt as agreed by all leaders of the party.

Wike, who spoke during a consultative visit by the Gombe State Governor and PDP presidential aspirant, Dr Ibrahim Dankwambo, at the Government House in Port Harcourt on Wednesday, said any presidential aspirant fighting Rivers State should forget about the of the state, during and after the national convention.

He said, “Let me warn the party, if you dare, Rivers State will teach the party a lesson. Those days have ed when they took Rivers State for granted. Nobody can use and dump Rivers State.

“No presidential aspirant can use and dump Rivers State. We never lobbied for it; we never asked for it, but it will boost the economy of the state. People will make money.

“Those who are against Rivers people from making money to improve their businesses will not get our .”

The governor said that the winner preferred by the delegates would emerge whether the National Convention held in Jigawa or Adamawa.

He added, “I don’t know why anyone who wants to be President will be afraid of a venue. Then you are not prepared for the election.

“Nobody should dare Rivers State any longer. Enough is enough. The PDP should know that we are not a punching bag. We are not people you can use and push. We are not harlots. Whenever you want, you come. When you finish, you push us aside.

“We will retaliate at the appropriate time. When you go, tell your colleagues, the presidential aspirants; we were not interested (in the venue), but having given it to us, you cannot insult us.”

Wike pointed out that there were persons who were not presidential materials, but had bought forms simply because the Presidency had been zoned to the North.

He wondered why a presidential aspirant would declare that he was uncomfortable with Port Harcourt as a venue but would love Rivers oil.

“You come here to deceive us about restructuring. Just that Rivers State is a venue, you fight it. Then when you are there, what will happen? You think we are fools; where you preach restructuring, then when you get the position, you abandon restructuring,” the governor stated.

Wike said that at the appropriate time, he would reveal the names of presidential aspirants working with the APC Federal Government to scuttle the presidential primary.

He added that no presidential aspirant would use a few of the Board of Trustees of PDP to scuttle the decision of the party to host the presidential primary in Port Harcourt.

The governor described Governor Dankwambo as “eminently” qualified to contest the position of the President, maintaining that Dankwambo would be considered when Rivers delegates meet to decide on the whom to .

Earlier, the presidential aspirant, Dankwambo, called on the Rivers PDP delegates to his aspiration and insisted that he had the capacity to set the country on the path of growth.
