Veteran Journalist, Dele Momodu, has slammed members of the Buhari Media Organization over the recent attacks launched against him.
Momodu in a statement released on Thursday August 13, slammed the organization for describing him as a lackey of embattled former Minister of Petroleum, Diezani Alison-Madueke.
Momodu in his statement said since his interview with Madueke where he revealed she had cancer, members of the organization have ”been angry and throwing tantrums like babies deprived of lollipops.”
He went on to state that members of the organization claimed Diezani’s cancer story was false yet they expect Nigerians to believe the story of President Buhari going to the UK to treat an undisclosed ailment and returning to Nigeria afterwards. He said if President Buhari can be healed of his undisclosed ailment and fully recover thereafter, then Deizani can enjoy the same privilege.

THE BUHARI MEDIA ORGANIZATION IS AN ASSOCIATION OF MEDIA VULTURES
My attention has just be drawn to a release by a group that calls itself The Buhari Media Organization calling me a lackey of former Minister of Petroleum, Mrs Diezani Alison-Madueke.
Ever since I interviewed the embattled woman about five years ago, they have been angry and throwing tantrums like babies deprived of lollipops. But my question is who are those calling anyone a lackey?
These are shameless vultures who, out of joblessness, turned themselves into attack dogs. Please, show me one of them who can be described as accomplished in any field of human endeavor. Nigeria is the only country where government waste scarce resources on parasites who can’t even defend their own existence talk less of a President.
What is there to defend in a government that promised so much but delivered so little? I wonder why they blame everyone for their failure and frustrations. I did my job professionally and ethically by interviewing Mrs Alison-Madueke. I stand by my story that she was nursing cancer.”
