A devastating security report revealed kidnappers attacking the Udi, home of the Deputy Governor of Enugu State, shooting women and abducting residents. It sparked grief, fear, and fresh questions about the government’s ability to protect communities in Enugu State.
Amidst the pain, one comment echoed broader frustration aimed at platforms like the Nigerian press and broadcast stations: “Media in Nigeria is a total disgrace.” This is media criticism, expressing disappointment in how information is reported, framed, or amplified.
Logically, anger toward the media shouldn’t overshadow the real issue—human lives and public safety. Nigerian media plays a key role in informing the public, calling for accountability, and shaping national awareness, especially during insecurity. Media can be criticized, but when we make them the center of blame, the conversation shifts away from rescuing the people who need it most.
