Federal Government, through the Attorney-General of the Federation, Malami, has ordered the release of the former National Security Adviser, Col. Sambo Dasuki and publisher ofAs of the time of filing this report on Tuesday, our correspondent learnt that final documentation was being concluded for the release of the two men at the headquarters of the DSS in Abuja.
editorial, which was widely discussed in the public domain, set off a controversy that beamed a fresh spotlight on the regime’s human rights record and Nigerians’ desire for a change of approach. His statement reads, “The Office of the Honourable Attorney General of the Federation has reviewed the pending criminal charges against the duo of Col. Sambo Dasuki and Omoyele Sowore.
Self glorification is the beginning of ignorance.
But you guys are wikid sha. If you have this kind of influence why did you allow Dasuki spend over 4 years in detention before your publication? Everyone is claiming to be important.
Thanks to we all see your impart. You showed the value of Nigerian citizen.
Thank Punch. We commend your bravery in the face of oppression that made many others in the press cower. You will be remembered.
Punch is fighting to take credit. Impossible. Many have been saying release Dasuki, for years now, so credit should be given to lots of people and to Buhari for listening.
PUNCH TISSUE PAPAR,continue fooling ur self,as if BUHARI cares with ur childish attitude.
Well done. Ink is mightier than gun and might put together!
Thought you're relevant?
That classic editorial of and it sequel few days ago remain one piece of journalistic works I am archiving. So classy and punchy. Kudo to Punch and everyone that stuck out their heads in calling out the regime's lax & tyrannical disposition to rule of law.
You guys are so fake.
So it's not MaziNnamdiKanu , segalink , realFFK or realDonaldTrump It was toiletNewsPaper aka that facilitated and struck fear into the heart of MBuhari b4 dasuki and Sowore were released. You people are a bunch of nimcompoos
Thanks to punch for the deadly punch
Kudos to punch newspaper
Keep whining urself 🙄
Jealousy! Jealousy! Jealousy! When punch risked it all where una dey? Punch please claim it. It's deserved!
Time to put pressure on ben_ayade and MrUdomEmmanuel to do the same in their states.
Com'on Meshionu there.
Tissue paper🤣🤣
They were both released as a result of the efforts of all Nigerians...you don't have to claim credit
It definitely has nothing to do with ur biased reporting
DoDeRightThing Una Don try...
Everyone is claiming victory for the FG's decision including the weak PUNCH
You're my media of the year
Leave the glory
After detentions that make them lost in this world there is Human Rights but not in our Country why all this and we are saying we are fighting corruption for God sake and Mr President you are part of the corrupt people without grant bail to these people
We wouldn't thank you enough for speaking up when others were silent, for fighting for a just society without minding the effects, for taking a stand when others were naive to take a stand. Generations to come, your long built reputation of being the people's voice will remain.
History will record you on the positive side of the Ledger, for taking a resolution stand against Lawlessness and Impunity. And for speaking up when it least convenient to do so 👊🏾👊🏾👊🏾
Well Done Punch. Growing up S a teen in Nigeria Punch Daily Times Evening Times LAGOS Weekend and Tribune were my top newspapers
you lads are the best, your editorial sends a strong message to Nigerian & the international community. Your bravery shook them to their marrows, your editorial was top notched, thanks for joining voice with millions of Nigerians that clamored for freedom.
He is still a MajorGeneral
He should still be called a Major Gen retd and he still runs a regime until he shows serious contrition. It is not easy to cure madness.
The fear of U.S.A is the .....of wisdom
Many are still there so don't stop calling him that painful name.. Releasing this two doesn't stop the fact that he already disobeyed court orders
Bunch of jokers 😂
❤️🙏🏿
Joke country!!! May God handle this Pharoahs himself in Jesus name Amen.. Any Pharoah frasutrating us in our land, Will be attended to by the Almighty God. Amen
Idiots😅😅
Don't play childish stuff here. Why claiming the credit? Nigerians freedom fighter deserve that more than you do. Likewise the letter of US Congress to Minister of Justice. Punch news paper don't deserve the credit
Bless You. 🙏
Many thanks to punch for their courageous criticism
Seem there's internet shutdown to douse the effect of today's superior order via an emissary of a superior power.
Liars.
See this toilet paper
What a country.
Audacious Punch!
dondekojo Buhari is afraid of the US but in Nigeria he claim to be Idi Amin of Nigeria.
!)p
😂😂😂😂😂😂...You see, you guys are too much..just one editorial changed everything..imagine if you guys write 10..maybe Nigeria will just transform to Dubai or Singapore or something...Wa oh! Magic fingers 😂😂😂😂
Punch of the people, for the people, by the people...ori yin wan mbe
Nobody buys your newspaper anymore, you are now clout chasing on twitter. It's a shame
Thanks
🤣🤣🤣
Thanks Punch.

1474Days Since the inhuman ZariaGenocide by wicked mass murderer tyrant MBuhari: IntlCrimCourt 548 men murdered 297 women murdered 193 children murdered 23 pregnant women murdered 39 Shia families wiped out 4rm existence FreeZakzaky FreedomForZakzaky BuhariObeyCourtOrder
Good move for now,e ven though, it's long overdue. And can proper prosecution of Dasuki start? We can't allow the drama that led to Sowore's re-arrest make us loose sight of arms dealing allegations against Dasuki. justice must be served. A lot of our military men were lost!
Kudos to for the 👊y editorial that transformed GMB to PMB.
😏😏😏😏
dondekojo The great defenders of democracy. Tranny shall not prevail
These two criminal been released has nothing to do with FG but the court and they are still facing the charges against them
Well done punch !
Very nice that this is finally happening. However, it's very interesting to see how swiftly the DSS obeys the order of the FG, while repeated orders of the courts remain unheeded. It's well with our democracy.
Fools
Well done
Where ru Femi Adeshina ? Has anybody seen Malami ?
Thank you . Don't be in a rush to remove the prefix. I don't trust this regime.
Thank you . Your pressure on the regime of Maj.Gen. Buhari has yeilded some results, but we need to keep up the fight for other political prisoners to be released.
We love you Punch Newspaper... Continue speaking out for the common man
dondekojo dear posterity will judge you nicely. thank you
cut chain o if you ask me so they deserve some accolades.👏👏
Thank you
That's doesn't make the tryrant a Democrat,he didn't obey court order, these people are not political prisoners.
Punch ti ya were o
Toilet paper
So after saying United States is not the Policeman of the world, Buhari chickened out and released Sowore and Dasuki
That is good news. Congratulations to them .
Maj Gen dey fear press oooo. Liverless Tyrant
Good one punch. Keep pressing for justice fairness and good governance
Punch punch we are proud of you!
Punch, no one saw you. Cheap clout chasers!
Thanks
Shaki nse bi ora. Do you think your useless editorial had any impact? Cheap and useless toilet paper
L🤣L. clowns🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡
Reason for the season good tidings all around. Cheers🎉🎉🎉
Please! Please!!
Thank you punch.
Toilet paper
🤜🤛
I wonder what Femi Adesina will say now. Most likely to be a scapegoat at the end of the day
History will remember for taking a stand against dictatorship. We now know, at least, one media organisation that is against the people.
Release him first nah..... TAlk is cheap
All hail PUNCH.✊
Toilet newspaper
WE LOVE MOBILE PUNCH.
Almost 24 hours after the attempt to lynch adeyanjudeji ..
Now, I like and respect even more than before. Kudos to you guys.
atleast we know the News will stand with the people...I hope this deed indeed continues. You have my sincere appreciations
These people actually based their decision to release them pursuant to the court orders? SMH It's OK to be a fool at times but it's not really OK to be a chronic unrepentant fool
Useless newspaper
Person wey dey work for hospital no dey collect salary for Ministry. Na wetin una want try to do here. Attempting undue self credit.
Congratulations Punch, we did it! 'Human rights abuse: My conscience is clear, Buhari tells US envoy' WTF does that even mean?
You people must really be feeling yourself right now.
Thanks for your contributions we appreciate a lot
You do reach the shite movement on elzazacky? Yeye
Thank you for standing with the masses!!!! daily_trust better grow up!!!!
The intervention of the US & UN might have played some roles in the release of the duo of Sowore & Dasuki
Our major general MBuhari has repented, welcome back to democracy Nigeria.
this is the highest level of paranoia!!! So you think your editorial resulted in their release.....
Well done for taking the bold initiative to call out the FGN; you reminded Nigerians what was expected of the 4th arm of govt. For our democracy to thrive, everyone must play their role; on this, your editorial played a huge and credible role ✊
Ori awon eleyi o ti e pe
THANK you courageous and selfless Punch Newspapers!
or tissue paper, we all know that officialKolaO and OfficialPDPNig has reduced your paper to envelopes. Anyways sha........ Carry on
He locked up those who are pain to his ass, while the main crooks walk freely and even help him to govern. No matter what, you can't rule forever....
So for ur mind, na ur editorial triggered the release. Bunch of bribe takers!
What The Punch has done will always be remembered in history. Never ever justify whatever is wrong. Kudos to your team
So they have fear?😂😂😂😂😂
O ga o, so there must be an 'order from above' before a simple court pronouncement can be complied with in naija? witches and wizards leave us alone now....
I commend for being on the side of the masses. History will be kind to you. Keep on the good work and don't be waery in speaking truth to the power that be as the need arises. God bless you. Nigeria shall be saved. Nigeria shall flourish again .
Thanks to the Federal Government
Power of A Free Press! If only we really know how to use this power in Nigeria. Take a look at how a Free Press is swinging the affairs in US.
13 day of Christmas ni, who your editorial epp
Na man una be! Kudos 💪🏾
Which useless and nonsensical editorial
Why didn't you experiment your editorial hoax when Dasuki (who tainted/washed your hands with blood money meant for our troops battling insurgents at the battle front) was denied denied bail severally since 2015. Collusion of haters.
This government is fond of wiping up unnecessary sensationalism. Is this a Xmas gift to Nigerians?
Please I want advice each of their village people to all come with speed vehicles and disappear with them if they are released cause they can still be rearrested at the gate for fresh charges.
Useless ragsheet, are you giving yourself credit for the release of YeleSowore? You definitely overrated your influence
Overbloated idea of your trashy Toilet Paper! Your Editorial? C'mmon! 😂😂😂
Kudos to freedom ..... you stood on the side of truth and freedom (a very dangerous stand to have taken it must be added considering all) ... may your press keep rolling
Thank you, the newspaper with tha PUNCH..!! ✊ Sowore
God bless u . Your actions brought their tyrany to d world limelight. Every actions taken directly or indirectly to pressure this govt is highly appreciated.
But errm punch, what's with the 13 days yenyenyen. How did it effect the release
Shebi I say na una be the true defenders of our democracy now👍❤😎
Something big is up Nigerians. Something bigger than Sowore and Dasuki. Can someone please ask him what he is planning next? Maybe they said he can’t borrow more money until he do so. Whatever the reason is, I am sure we are about to be wowed real soon. Adam scared for Nigerians.
Is like the judiciary has no powers to release ..........
I'm particularly happy for Dasuki.
🤣🤣🤣 Not the US delegates again. Who are we going to thank now, you people are confusing us.
Punch you guy have done a good job so far. Weldone
Fed govt orders release from fed govt. Can only happen when fools are in the helm of affairs
A toast to courage!!!Its really sad that in times like this,we can no longer count on the NBA to be a voice of courage &resistance. The PaulUsoroSAN led NBA has let down lawyers&the entire country. May we never experience this kind of leadership ever again!
Victory at last. The regime of the Major General about to do the right thing after so much impunity. Kudos to punch for standing for the truth. Who the crown fits....
Hahaha hahaha 😆😀😁 punch,punch,punch,editorial, editorial.
After warning frm U. S. IF u no. U no!
🙄🤦
Time for malami n the Head of Dss to be removed from office.
He's still to be addressed as Major General that he truly is and his maladministration as Regime that it is. You can't eat your cake and have it.
They are scared of international sanctions and possible NATO and the UN invasion. Thank you we are proud of you, keep the good work going.
See these ones.
Fear don catch them, disgraceful bunch.
Punch, I see what you are trying to do there oo. Stylishly claiming the credit
Between Federal Government Orders and Court Orders, which is more respected and superior under General Buhari's regime? THERE IS IMPUNITY IN THE LAND! Aluta Continua.
I'm waiting to see major general on this one
Look at this ones....!!!!
