According to a report on DailyIndependent, gunmen, which number could not be easily ascertained, on Friday morning raided a printing press in Shomolu area of Lagos State, carting away copies of a book on the administration of President Goodluck Jonathan.
Their correspondent gathered that the gunmen harassed the printers and took away copies of the book, entitled Two-Faced Jonathan: 100 Reasons Why Jonathan Must Go, authored by Blessing Agbomhere.
Workers in the printing press who were too frightened, could not ask questions or confront the gun-
wielding men suspected to be security operatives.
Speaking to journalists on the development, Agbomhere said the book was scheduled for launch at the Nigerian Union of Journalists (NUJ) Secretariat in Lagos, before the incident.
Agbomhere, who is also the initiator of Change Ambassador of Nigeria (CAN), said:
“This book was being printed in Shomolu and I was told that the book that was to be launched today (Saturday) was taken away after someone within the printing press, who has sympathy for the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), alerted security operatives about it.
They came and confiscated all the printed copies of the book. They came in mufti.Agbomhere added that the book mirrors Jonathan as a “President of the cabal, Tompolo, Asari-Dokubo and a few other corrupt elements, who are sponsoring Boko Haram to destroy Nigeria’s unity.
“We don’t know the arm of security agency that they belong to, or whether they are private individuals or not. The printers had to immediately release the books to them, because, they were heavily armed. I am not owing them. I have already paid them.”
“The book says President Jonathan has failed to defend the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria and as such should not seek re-election or ask for a job he know he doesn’t have the capacity to do,” he said.The author dared Jonathan to act on the Nigeria National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC) forensic audit report and bring those indicted by the report to book. - See more at: http://www.lailasblog.com/2015/02/gunmen-storm-lagos-press-confiscate.html#more
