The writer expressed his disappointment on his Instagram account, where he noted that it took a foreign news agency to reveal the atrocities going on in Libya. Even following the CNN exposé on the ongoing slave trade in Libya, nothing was heard about it in the Nigeria local media. It was only after US singer Chris Brown shared the gruesome images on his social media account did our own celebrities pick on. The social media was instead more concerned with trivial and gossip, and ignored important social issues that affect the life and wellbeing of Nigerians.
The writer also slammed traditional media agencies and investigative journalists whose silence on the Libya slave trading was deafening.
Furthermore, the writer noted some social problems going on in many parts of the country and wondered whether the media are waiting for foreign news agencies to expose the ills.
In concluding the writer called Nigerians hypocrites pretending to be angry who will soon forget the Libya issue in a few days, citing as a reference the case of Chibok Girls, and Yola Boys Kidnapping.
