On Hadiza Gabon’s show

I watched with nostalgia, an interview Hadiza Gabon had with Ibrahim Birniwa. First of all, people need to bear in mind that she is not a professional or trained journalist.

It is now a norm in northern Nigeria that whoever wants to do something new is set to face antagonism. He or she must therefore be ready for both commendations and criticisms. Criticisms to the person should be stepping stones to grow higher.

My point here is that Hadiza and her team are doing well, but they should re-jig the kind of questions to ask guests. Anything that will raise dust afterward should be shunned. Deep personal life or privacy of a person should not be exposed to the public, and when guests dodge questions, there is no need to insist the way she did to Elmu’az Birniwa.

SPONSOR AD

People’s criticisms should not discourage her; rather, she should double her efforts and skip ambiguous questions or irrelevant issues.

Hadiza’s show is more popular than others. Viewers always commend her efforts through comments.

Since the show is mainly in Hausa, too much use of English language should be minimised. Also, the questions thrown to Shehu Ajilo using some English words were inappropriate.

The show is indeed a window for showcasing talented individuals from our dear northern part of Nigeria to the world. Modern gadgets to promote the show should be put in place. Finally, all of us need to always encourage those making good efforts to make the society a better place rather than throwing unwarranted criticisms.
