- W2896376556 abstract "Press freedom could be likened to leadership. Its absence or presence inany polity is easily noticed. This is not surprising, considering thefact thatthe concept of press freedom is at the heart of human person/societaldevelopment. Unfortunately, most governments around the world pay mere lip service when it comes to expressing the concept of pres freedom on theground. Even where the constitution guarantees press freedo m, there areusually provisions within such constitution to ensure that press freedom isnot realised. In an environment of 'govemment-prescribed freedom, the prescannot perform its watchdog role. Constitutional limitation result in a situation whereby the press is declared free yet everywhere it is in chains.This has been the Nigerian experience. Our position here is that thegovernment should borrow a leaf from the United States of America whereCongress shall make no law ... abridging the freedom of speech or thepress. It is this constitutional guarantee that has enabled the American pressto achieve peak performance in the words of thefounding father of the Alfred Friendly Press Fellowship (AFPF), AIFed Friendly (1911 - 1983): A free press is the best, the most effective, the most constantly functioninginstrument by which a people, a community, a nation looks at its self andfinds out who and what it is and what it is doing." @default.
