Attack on DAILY POST staff: HURIWA calls for immediate arrest of Benue PDP Chairmanship aspirant, Samuel Onuh, others

Territory commissioner of the Nigeria Police and other relevant security agencies to ensure the immediate arrest and prosecution of attackers of one of DAILY POST Deputy Editors, Comrade Ameh Godwin.

HURIWA said that the media practitioners are playing a strategic national role as the national conscience which is provided for in section 22 of the Nigerian constitution just as the Rights group said that on no account should a media practitioner be subjected to dehumanizing treatment and physical or psychological torture for carrying out their professional duties.

“We call on the Nigeria Police to immediately arrest the suspects and all those involved in this alleged premeditated attack without any further delay even as there is the urgent need for the National Human Rights Commission and the hierarchies of the two dominant political parties in Nigeria viz Peoples Democratic Party and the All Progressives Congress to consistently and continually give extensive capacity-building trainings on good governance standards and human rights to all their members...

HURIWA further warned that should the investigators determine the extent of their culpability in this alleged dastardly crime of physical violence on a JOURNALIST, then Prince Onuh and his alleged political cohorts should be held responsible should any other thing happens to other journalists and groups who in the wake of the zoning controversy in the State dropped their individual opinions on zoning.
