The Special Adviser to President Muhammadu Buhari on Media and Publicity, Femi Adesina, has urge the media not to send Nigeria into a tailspin with too much criticism.
Adesina, who said this on Tuesday at the State House in Abuja, when a radio station presented him an award, solicited for continued partnership with the media in order to help the government and citizens realise the Nigeria of their dream.
Adesina said: “The media should partner with the government instead of being adversaries. What you find in the media at times is that they are so adversarial to the government, which does not have to be. This is our country and we don’t have any other one.
“If they send the country into a tailspin through too much criticism, even the media won’t even be able to do its work. So, we should always bear in mind that it is our country and whatever we make of it is what we get.”
