Nigeria: Two journalists in hiding, a third gets death threats

Reporters Without Borders has deplored the appalling threats and constraints under which Nigerian journalists work, with two of them currently in hiding because of an arrest order issued by a judge on 16 May 2007 and a third receiving repeated telephone threats because of an article published on 22 May. "The absence of change at the head of the federal government apparently means that nothing will change for Nigerian journalists, either," the press freedom organisation said.
