Another rain of Curses

The media is supposed to be the conscience of the society. The mirror that reflects happenings without fear or favour, with a reasonable string of ownership interests.

Yes.

You cannot separate the interest of the owner of a medium, from its editorial policy. However, it becomes a great disservice when you are grossly out of line and sacrifice facts on the altar of bias.

Vanguard does it.

They have done it again.

They almost pulled a flashpoint on us.

A 2014 video was adapted to suite a 2017 story without a time reference. They really wanted Daddy O to speak on the herdsmen saga that they gave us the Boko Haram version. After all, they are supposedly all from the north.

Vanguard,went back in time, the Berry Allen kind of way and tried to affect the present timeline, but it did not work,not everybody forgot. Maybe they should have used the Storm riders in TeenWolf; make us forget completely.

I bought it. They sold it well. I didn't even recollect, I really wanted more influential church voices to speak on the #KadunaKillings. So they exploited me, gave me what I wanted to hear... created a trend. They gave you too.

Okay, it's time to burst the bubbles for those that don't know yet, the current trending video of Daddy O, unleashing heaven well blended curses on those spreading terror is not recent. It was late 2014,at the height of the Boko Haram onslaught and before the 2015 elections.

Anyway, we still want them to die Shey?
We still want the sponsors of Terror to be caused Shey? Oya relive the atmosphere, garnish it with some anger about the Southern Kaduna killings, give the prayer a Timeline and shout Amen!

Let somebody shout Hallelujah!

But why Vanguard go dey fall our hand like this now? We can cope with the typo errors... but factual errors too? Haba. Have you forgotten facts are sacred? Thank God say I no share the video... and the only place I argued about it was within an inner circle, it would have been a massive blow along the "And you are a journalist " street.

Anyway, still on the southern Kaduna killings.... it has to stop.
