"I DID NOT BAN AIT FROM COVERING MY ACTIVITIES OOO!!!" - BUHARI CRIES OUT.


Lol, just thought I should use that funny caption but he sure has come out to deny the claims.
Few hours Ago, we reported that Buhari ordered his security agents to Ban AIT from covering his Activities (READ STORY HERE)

Buhari, who was reacting to
reports that he has barred AIT, noted that he will not discriminate against any media organization, irrespective of its role during the electioneering campaign leading up to the recent polls.

Buhari, who spoke through his party’s National Publicity Secretary, Lai Mohammed, however enjoined all media organizations to observe the highest level of professional standards in carrying out their duties.

In a statement issued in Abuja on Tuesday by its National Publicity Secretary, Alhaji Lai Mohammed, the party said the incoming Buhari Administration will not discriminate against any media organization, irrespective of its role during the electioneering campaign leading up to the recent polls.

It however enjoined all media organizations to observe the highest level of professional standards in carrying out their duties.

”There is a Code of Ethics guiding the practice of journalism in Nigeria, and this demands every journalist to ensure a strict adherence to the highest levels of ethics and professionalism in carrying out their duties.

”There must be repercussions, within the realms of the law, for media organizations which have wantonly breached the Code of Ethics of the journalism profession and turned themselves to partisans instead of professionals. But such repercussions will not include barring any accredited media organization from covering the activities of the President-elect,” APC said.
