During the US presidential elections sef, there were lots of stories that bloggers carried that media houses began to address days after. <BR/><BR/>It is just sad that Nigeria is returning to its Abacha days when u dared not say anything for fear of being "carried"bumighthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16921134538404613210noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6317584602331594302.post-5806637687507523252008-10-29T01:42:00.000-07:002008-10-29T01:42:00.000-07:00Waff,Very well said.And in response to your 'What ...Waff,<BR/><BR/>Very well said.<BR/><BR/>And in response to your 'What if?' question, if you ever hear that someone called N.I.M.M.O has been 'invited' by SSS, EFCC, NNS or anybody else, don't just sit behind your laptop please, organize all bloggers and storm the place commando style to spring me otherwise, when I come out all of una go hear am.N.I.M.M.Ohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04495100036040996719noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6317584602331594302.post-60935925007133185932008-10-28T09:29:00.000-07:002008-10-28T09:29:00.000-07:00Well said.Well said.Naapalihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11868505901688507321noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6317584602331594302.post-64824064996235152152008-10-28T07:46:00.000-07:002008-10-28T07:46:00.000-07:00Have to go with Doja on this one, Elendu's not the...Have to go with Doja on this one, Elendu's not the first nor the last, but we have to keep fighting for freedom of speech, otherwise things will never get better. I definitely remember being warned by friends/acquaintances early on about the dangers of blogging about Nigerian leadership in anything less than a positive light. And I remember thinking, "the SSS REALLY has time to troll the internet looking for inconsequential bloggers like myself...puhlease".<BR/><BR/>As you say Waffy, the govt can't shut down any piece of negative press/criticism it disagrees with, the truly constructive response would be to counter such criticisms with actions that speak otherwise. <BR/><BR/>Thanks for sharing!TheAfroBeathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13909748861182207942noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6317584602331594302.post-902357550257008412008-10-28T07:40:00.000-07:002008-10-28T07:40:00.000-07:00wouldnt it be a lot easier if the government relea...wouldnt it be a lot easier if the government released a statement refuting whatever they felt was not true. <BR/><BR/>"The internet is too huge a place to wage war on."
