All Accredited Media Including AIT Are Free To Cover Buhari’s Activities- APC

APC National Publicity Secretary, Alhaji Lai Mohammed released a statement on the issue of Buhari barring AIT from covering his activities.

Lai said all accredited media can cover Buhari’s activities including AIT.

Lai issued the statement on Tuesday, April 28, 2015 in Abuja. And it reads:

”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,”
