HATE SPEECH: GOV. ALIA READS RIOT ACT TO POLITICIANS, JOURNALISTS



23rd July, 2023      


Benue State Governor, Rev Fr Hyacinth Alia has warned politicians and journalists alike that they would be held accountable for every hate speech and inciting statement they make agasnst his administration.


The Governor who spoke at the stakeholders’ meeting of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in the state held at the Government house, Makurdi last weekend reminded journalism that where their rights end, the right of others begin.


According to the Governor, “Hate speech is against the law of the Federal Government; if you are found wanting the law shall be applied to you. The fact that the water is still does not mean that there are no crocodiles in that water.


“Those who are fond of hate speeches and inciting statements are not permitted, irrespective of your political or social affiliation.


“It’s not my fault, nor your fault for APC to be in government today. The people wanted us in and we are in. So anyone out there inciting the masses; anyone out there making inflammatory speeches in the mainstream media or the social media must be held responsible.


“For you gentlemen of the press, I want to thank you for what you have continued to do for us. But remember, where your right starts and ends, someone else’s right begins; your conscience, politeness and investigative journalism will make a better place for all of us.”


The Governor who noted that politicians fed fat on crisis situations in the state, stressed that his government had no room for such politicians.


He also pointed out that he contested the election because he knew things were bad, but was quick to add that he had the capacity to do the job.


According to him, “I knew things were bad and I applied for the job to fix things and I am going to fix them. We are going to redeem the civil service” among other sad realities that are on ground, he vowed.

  SSANU, NASU threaten strike over withheld salaries The Joint Action Committee of the Senior Staff Association of Nigerian Universities and the Non-Academic Staff Union of Educational and Associated Institutions have threatened to disrupt industrial peace in universities should the government fail to release the withheld salaries of members. The salaries were seized by the administration of former President Muhammadu Buhari during their strike in 2022. The unions, in a joint letter signed on Friday by the President of SSANU, Muhammed Ibrahim and General Secretary of NASU, Peters Adeyemi, questioned the rationale with which the government released four months withheld salaries to members of the Academic Staff Union of Universities but failed to release the withheld salaries of non-academic staff. The unions noted that they would no longer be able to assure the government of industrial peace in universities should the amounts owed by the government are not released. Earlier, the uni...
