The War against Nigerian Media

SIMONKOLAWOLE! BY SIMON KOLAWOLE My roommate in my final year at the University of Lagos was a man of humour. Much older than I was, he was someone you would call a “mature” student. He even bought a TV for our two-man room at the Henry Carr Hall of Residence. He had practised as a journalist for years before coming to Unilag to study political science. One of his witty moments usually came anytime it was getting to 9pm. Whatever we were doing, he would suddenly announce, “Simon, it’s time to listen to the government news bulletin.” That automatically meant we should tune in to the Nigerian Television Authority (NTA) to watch the Network News. He always said it so seriously you could miss the joke!

Media must be allowed to partake in framework for regulation – Kabir Yusuf

Media houses across the country have been unanimous in pushing back attempt by the government to regulate social media and censor the press through controversial media bills at the National Assembly. The controversial bills are the Nigerian Broadcasting Commission (NBC) and the Nigerian Press Council (NPC) Act amendment bills. But speaking with newsmen in Ilorin on the sidelines of a lecture organised to celebrate the 60th birthday anniversary of the secretary of IPI, Raheem Adedoyin, on Friday, Yusuf emphasized that self regulation is the best way to address the problem of fake news. According to him, “Regulation is good for it but what we want is to be able to take part in creating the framework for regulation.
