Nigerian Media Stand In Solidarity Against Govt's Censorship Efforts | PLUS POLITICS

Описание: A round of media solidarity, via major dailies in Nigeria, has followed Monday’s widely circulated advertorial calling on the government to shut down two controversial media bills at the National Assembly, which are the Nigeria Press Council (NPC) and the National Broadcasting Commission bills. Nigerian newspapers expressed their disregard for the bills in their respective editorials on Tuesday, saying, while the media is not averse to regulation, it wants it done without undermining its independence. The sponsor of the controversial bills, Segun Odebunmi, has now stated that the House has agreed to suspend the bills so that lawmakers would have time for proper consultations over the bill.

Chris Isiguzo, President of the Nigeria Union of Journalists joined the conversation.
