“The NBC has now been co-opted into a grand plot to gag the media over Tinubu’s certificate scandal. Having lost the battle in the court of public opinion, they are now trying to use the powers of the state to browbeat the media into silence. This is indeed shameful for a man who claimed to be a hero of the June 12 struggle.”

Shaibu noted that this is not the time for the Nigerian media to show any weakness.

He stressed that the trove of documents that the FBI was set to release this month would expose details of the investigation on Tinubu.

Atiku’s aide added that the dissemination of this information must not be left to social media alone. The media must rise up to its role as the watchdog of society as enshrined in Section 22 of the 1999 constitution.

Dude the man is old and unwell. From a reliable source in New York, the man avoided the press so much. He didn't want to do any impromptu interview rather he wanted where questions were sent in advance to him. That alone is clear that the man is no stable and fit. Forget all the media paparazzi the man is old and unfit.

What's your reliable source in New York?

You people should stop this myopic comments and talk like educated people. The president is under constitutional authority and cannot operate outside the constitutional letters, if he does anything contrary he becomes a tyrant and autocratic ruler, which will illegitimate his government. Gagging of media and obstructing flow of information is unconstitutional and he will pelt himself against the people and world leaders. Note this, the president is not an alpha and Omega the way you people perceived it to be. He is under constitutional rule.
The backlash Buhari received all over the world for the one he did by suspending Twitter is still a dent to the country for wanting to gag the freedom of speech.

Another narrative for the next failed expedition? The last one don fade away.

Atiku desperation would not deliver Presidency to him.

He's only trying to rubbish Tinubu bcoz he claimed that Tinubu betrayed him in 2007, 2015, 2019, and 2023.

Atiku went ahead to also claim that Buhari APC government had crippled his businesses and terminated his companies contract agreements with some government Agencies like NPA, NIMASA, etc.

So, it's more of personal issues and not about Nigeria or the masses.

I wish him well in his self destructive fight.

Yes, he's not Alpha and Omega but people shouldn't abuse the rights given to them by the constitution bcoz Mr President can withdraw same if abused. You don't use your freedom of speech to slander others.

Therefore, Rights have limitations. Your freedom of speech doesn't cover you when you dish out fake news.

If you say you have right to engage in business activities, you must ensure that the business is genuine and not harmful to the public.

The last time Buhari banned Twitter, what did you do? You cannot do anything about it.

I'm one of those that believe that social media should be regulated bcoz of the abuse out there. People should know the implications of throwing out fake news.

Sorry, Mr. President doesn't give anyone right, it is the constitution that gives people right because he would not be there for life, as his position is not monarchical, it's only the constitution of Nigeria that remain eternal while the position of president is temporal. This is the problem some of you have, thinking anyone working for government is working for the leader and that is why they are not patriotic to the nation but to the person that appointed them.

If anyone slander you or him, there is a place he can vent his grievance and that is the law court but not to feel you can take law into your own hands and do and undo.

The problem you people have is you don't want anyone to talk about the burning issue, you want everyone to maintain silence on the face of glaring prevailing issues but that won't be possible because we are in a democratic setting and not automatic regime. If anyone slander or libel against you, go to court and don't take law into your own hands. I expected Tinubu or the names of people Mr. Dele Farotimi called to sue him rather than dancing to press people to submission not to talk their mind on issues.
One of the issues he raised was on Lawal and Akpabio. Was it true that the two of them didn't partook of party primaries but the supreme court of our land gave them clean bill of health that they won their primary election that they didn't partook in. Please where in our law was it written that if you didn't partake in an election you can be declare a winner? In this serious situation, you people still want people that are critical of the situation to be silent because to you people they are talking about, they are slandering them.
Or was it also lie that Tinubu hasn't been lying and committing criminal act or does he not use secondary, primary schools in did not attend in 1999 to aid his qualification as a governor or not had narcotic case in USA or not used non-existent secondary school, Government College, Lagos to aid his admission into CSU as revealed by the record released by CSU to Atiku or that Tinubu didn't use different date of births? All these are criminal act but you people doesn't want people to talk about them because they are immuned to be talked about, forgetting that Tinubu, Lawal and Akpabio are now public figures and they owe the people accountability and to live above board. You cannot continue to cowing people for your own personal interest. If they had not come out to say they want to lead, I don't think anyone would want to know who they are. They call for their scrutiny and should not be seen as against any rule. I hope you read what they US judge said, that the public interest supercedes Tinubu's right, that for Tinubu to have submitted his diploma certificate, he has put his records under scrutiny. You people should cool down and face the reality, not because of today but for tomorrow.
We cannot continue to complain that things are not working and at the same time doesn't want people to talk about what makes things not to work.

Let me clear something.
Gabon president did it,he gagged the Media on the day of election,did he not?
In the case of Buhari, nothing happened to him as he got away with it, because he's not imprisoned or given any punishment for that.
You can say all you want,but the truth is that this current administration removed #Alleyesonjudiciary sign board,and nothing happened and believe me it only goes downhill from there.
The billboard did not threaten the judiciary in any way but it was removed,why?
That in and of itself is a gag,it's light but still a gag and if the government decide to take it up a notch, nothing will still happen.
I'm not for it but it's just the truth.
