David Hundeyin is amazingly asking @TwitterSafety and @verified to ban @KemiOlunloyo from Twitter.

Yet, this fellow tweeted photos of @renoomokri’s one year old daughter and sicced his followers on her to the extent she got death threats. Who really should be banned?

Character assassination & serial criminal defamation is NOT investigative journalism. We know reputable journalists in our clime. They are not hands for hire by politicians to impugn the integrity of others. I was alarmed at the number of calls I received when I offered to help..

…you are a young man whose future is bright if only you get out of your own way. You are not a wanted man & being on self exile won’t grant you asylum in any sane country. This explains why you were declined by the UK, Belgium, US, Canada & Germany.

Shuttling Ghana & Benin…

…is not healthy for a talent like yours. You are young and needs encouragement. Stop seeking the downfall of people and hope to succeed in life. What you make happen for others God will make happen for you. Spreading lies about people & exaggerating things is Manipulative.

Madam @KemiOlunloyo may be a lot of things but fundamentally she is human and deserves her respect. We may disagree on a lot of things and still be responsible. You guys are the future of this country and getting well adjusted to this madness will cost you all. #NuffSaid

Context and approach matter a lot in communication. You don’t deliberately take things out of context or criminally misrepresent issues and sell it as an objective investigation when the prejudices are obvious. That is manipulative & you are robbing the world of your true gift.

This is not to condemn anyone but to cause us to reflect. If I need to write about the lies of David I will but I’m giving him the benefit of the doubt that he’s allowing his emotions get the best of him. 90% of what he wrote in my case were false. So there’s room for improvement

There are other cases too that I followed up on just for his protection where he never showed up to get the true picture of things against what he wanted people to believe. These are few examples of the gaps in your craft which taints the efforts. But I believe you can be better!
