On Monday, June 29, President Muhammadu Buhari ordered that
the accreditation tag of Mallam Ubale Musa, the correspondent of Radio/TV
Deutsche Welle which was withdrawn by the administration of former President
Goodluck Jonathan be restored with immediate effect.
Musa’s accreditation was withdrawn on provocation that he
asked visiting President of Chad, Idriss a question the former president and his
men felt was embarrassing. While restoring his accreditation and re-issuing him
with a new press tag, presidential spokesman, Mr. Femi Adesina said the
re-accreditation of Musa was in keeping with Buhari’s commitment to correcting
the wrongs of the past.
He said, "On the directive of President Muhammadu Buhari,
the Villa Press Pass of the Radio/TV Deutsche Welle State House Correspondent,
Mr. Ubale Musa, which was withdrawn in the last days of the Jonathan
Administration, was restored to him today. Part of the change promised by
President Buhari is correcting things that were wrongly done before. Mr. Ubale
Musa’s accreditation was wrongly withdrawn. To redress the wrong done to him by
the withdrawal, we have returned his Villa Press Pass to him so that he can
continue his work without hindrance".
