1/x Thread on censored songs in #Cambodia:
If it's about economics, or criticism of the ruling party, it's fair game for censorship.

"‘I don’t have a choice’: hip-hop artist in Cambodia deletes song after becoming a political pawn" scmp.com/lifestyle/ente…
2/x 'Drunk Teacher" (Chen Sai Chai, Town production) banned on request of Ministry of Education. December 2018

6/End

Here is a good general summary by .@NewNaratif. Censorship these days in #Cambodia is less about 'public morals' and more about the government looking good.

#Thread NBA by Romane, par son papa.
Bonsoir tout le monde,
Je me permets de prendre le clavier afin de vous remercier chaleureusement, pour vos centaines de commentaires encourageants, pleins de sympathie et d'une immense bienveillance.
Je tiens à préciser, afin que tout soit le plus transparent possible, que Romane a travaillé seule pour la préparation de son émission, toute la semaine, notamment grâce à @NBAextra qu'on regarde le soir. Elle a préparé d'elle-même des fiches en prévision de l'enregistrement.
Le jour de l'enregistrement, dimanche, il a fallu qu'elle revoie un peu ses fiches et qu'elle fasse plusieurs prises pour chaque séquence. C'est un boulot fastidieux. Elle a fait preuve de beaucoup de patience et de persévérance. Elle y a passé environ deux heures.

Never in PDP’s 20-Year history have they gone into a presidential campaign with State Governors as unbothered as the current set. If you know anything about the PDP - and about Nigeria really- it is that Presidential campaigns tend to ride largely on the back of Governors
#Thread
Governors are the most powerful set of politicians in the Nigerian democracy, after the President, for obvious reasons - they control half of all Revenues accruing to the Federation. PDP, as a veteran ruling party, quickly mastered the art of ‘managing’ its Governors.
The reason Atiku almost upstaged OBJ in 2003 was because he had the PDP Governors lined up firmly behind him. Obasanjo was a rattled man, and reportedly had to BEG to get a second-term ticket. The Governors could easily have had him dethroned. They - Govs - were/are The Party!

Can the Senate President be removed IF the entire 109 Senators are not complete?
#MyView
Saraki is GONE if and when @OfficialAPCNg is ready. It will only take 30 minutes without any drama. So don't think removing Saraki will be that dramatic guys..
#RemovingSaraki
Don't argue too much on this.
Nigeria had 109 Senators as at the time Saraki was "elected" as Senate President by just 57 Senators. If that was constitutional & seen to have formed a "quorum"
then removing Saraki by 2/3 of the same "quorum" is constitutional...
#RemovingSaraki
The other perspective is this:
Does the constitution say that the Senate President MUST come from the Majority party/ruling party?
Simple logic:
Can a Senator from the MINORITY be the Majority leader of the house?
Can a Senator from the Majority party be the Minority leader? 🤔🤔
