Popular online news platform, SIGNAL has joined Punch Newspapers to protest against the continuous down play of the rule of law by the Buhari-led Administration.
SIGNAL took to their official Twitter handle to announced that it will now address President Muhammadu Buhari with the prefix: ‘Dictator’ in all its publications, saying that the decision came as a show of protest for the consistent disregard for the rule of law and clampdown on freedom of expression in Nigeria.
The tweet reads; “NOTICE | As a show of protest for the consistent disregard for the rule of law and clampdown on freedom of expression in #Nigeria, we shall henceforth address President Muhammadu @MBuhari with the prefix: ‘Dictator’ in all our publications.
“The ‘Dictator’ prefix on Muhammadu @MBuhari will be relaxed by this media house only after court orders are obeyed and detained prisoners of conscience like @YeleSowore are freed from detention and the framed up charges of treason against them dropped.”
