Last Monday’s ultimatum to the government, by the press associations and the press trade union in Guinea, following an extraordinary session that allowed a focus on the crisis relating to the jamming of the waves of certain radio stations deprived of the square, and the restriction of the Internet, has just expired without the lines moving from one iota. And so it would be right for the media to respond to the coup, to these liberticidal maneuvers designed to muzzle people.
Far from us, far from being willing to play in the clever, it can be said that Guinea is in a bedridden state. Probably the lack of a doctor who is equal to the height or a miracle recipe. Look for the mistake.
However, the junta, after displaying Saint Bernard’s face, changed its rifle. As the countdown of the transition is rising, power is strengthening. While showing nervousness.
With the firm desire to show all the colours to the preventable to rule in circles.
Such as traditional media and social networks. Hence this jamming of the waves of FIM-FM, Djoma FM and Espace FM. Three media outlets are the burgey of the Guinean audio-visual press. The restriction of the Internet has been added to jamming.
This fact of the prince, worthy of a different age, has widened the gap between the junta and the people.
A power received as a hero, but whose capital sympathy is melting as a sorrow.
One has the impression of being in a jungle where the strongest devour the weak defenceless. Faced with these attempts by the junta to silence all dissonant voices, the media professionals, are now on the war front. The survival instinct helps.
Ready to fight with press predators. That, from that Wednesday. Among the strong actions envisaged by press associations in conjunction with the SPPG, it is planned to point the finger at certain personalities as enemies of the press. These include Dr Bernard Goumou, the Prime Minister. As well as by Mr. Djiba Diakité, PCA of the National Telecommunications Regulatory Council; Ousmane Gaoual Diallo, Minister for Posts, Telecommunications and the Digital Economy; Mamady Doumbouya, Director General of I’arPT; Adama Condé, DGA of the ARPT.
The movement intends to take legal action against the ARPT; to organise Pressless Days; to organise synergies from private radio and television; to boycott the activities of the transitional bodies, I do and the best ones.
At the pace of progress, the media plan to enforce the law of talion. Namely, “eye for an eye, tooth for tooth”. In the face of a stubborn junta, which believes in its star and which only at its head. As if to say that “the dog barks the caravan passes”.
