Femi Adesina, spokesperson of the Presidency, has stated that the Buhari-led Government has never clamped down on the media.
Adesina who appeared on Arise TV’s The Morning Show on Monday February 1, countered allegation of government shutting down an online news platform, Peoples Gazette.
He further said the online news platform is a “paper that lies every day. He claimed it has told lies against him and several other people.”
Adesina said;
“This government never clamped down on the media. It has never done, and will never do.
“This government will never tamper with the independence of the media, and freedom of the press.
“Peoples gazette is a paper that lies every day. It has lied against me and has lied against several people. So why should we bother ourselves against a platform that’s full of lies?”
