Netizens weigh in on Dotun's post

Dotun’s comment reignited the long-running online discussion about journalistic style and ethics in Nigeria’s media space.

@Captainjossy:

"His kind of approach is needed in Nigeria at this point. When politicians are unable to give valid accounts, so it’s only right to confront them with the same boldness. He stays within ethical boundaries but applies a unique and fearless method, and that’s what I admire."

@uduseresunny:

"If you love and want Nigeria to work, you will always support rufai's king of journalism not some set of clowns in TVC and channels."
