For we really hunt – digging up facts, holding those in public positions accountable, 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.
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.
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 , 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.
Should this picture represent Lai Mohammed or the provoked hunters?I am lost
