But reacting, Sani while commending the soldiers for their service to Nigeria, described the siege as an act of ‘dictatorship’.
The Kaduna lawmaker on his Twitter page wrote: “We appreciate the service and sacrifice of our troops on the frontline. However, the siege on the Daily Trust and the arrest of Journalists is an affront on freedom,reminiscent of the era of dictatorship.
