The Peoples Democratic Party has praised the judiciary “for upholding justice and the tenets of democracy, particularly the right of fair hearing, by ordering the immediate reopening of African Independent Television and Raypower radio”.
The NBC Director-General, Modibbo Kawu, who announced the suspension at a news conference in Abuja, said that the suspension was until further notice. He added that the judiciary had also demonstrated that “it is indeed the last hope of the common man in the face of an oppressive system”.He described it as a calculated plot to cow and emasculate the press, asphyxiate free speech and suffocate public opinion.
Mr Ologbondiyan also cautioned the security agencies not to allow themselves to be used by desperate power mongers against law-abiding citizens, but to ensure that their actions were backed by the dictates of the law.
Look who's talking.
This is what you should always do. Advice the agreived to go to court, strengthen democratic institutions and move on. You should not mourn or hire mourners for waivers. The truth will always stand as it did in Zamfara.
