Against the background of President Goodluck Jonathan’s assertion that the media in Nigeria is politicised, Olubunmi Ajibade, a senior lecturer of the department of mass communication of the University of Lagos said it is the politicians who are trying to buy journalists for their selfish interest.
In a telephone interview with the anchors of Channels Television’s programme, Sunrise Daily, Mr Ajibade said journalists are professionals and follow professional ethics.
President Jonathan had said that the media is no longer the voice of ordinary people, but “the voices of their ‘rich owners’.”
The Senior lecturer debunked the president’s claim saying journalists in Nigeria will report what they consider important to their audience – the public.
