Anti Social Media Bill: Dictatorship In Disguise by BarrSly: 4:36pm On Nov 18, 2019 |
The impending ‘Protection from Internet Falsehood and Manipulations Bill 2019’ aka Anti Social-media Bill is nothing more than an attempt to send this country back into the Military era. I’m forced to ask, of what relevance is Section 39 of The 1999 Constitution? ‘Individuals who posts false info on the internet and if found guilty would pay a fine of #150,000 or 3 months in prison’ ..Yet this is a government which thrives on propaganda and lies to get their way into power.. ‘Corporate organisations that refuse to block false information after being alerted by regulatory bodies would be asked to pay a fine of 5m-10m.’ ( Saha .... Desert Reporters una hear am so?) .. who are we deceiving here? After using bail refusal to silence human rights activists, throwing them behind (DSS) Bars and putting the fear of gun in protesters, now they want to put the fear of jail in every Nigerian who has an access to Data (U hear am so? Even you sef wen dy use MTN free Facebook Data join o ) If you guys don’t see where we are headed then I think you should take time out to read the ‘Cencorship Legislations of almighty North Korea.’ Next thing we would have to watch only one TV station (NTA maybe ). On a serious note this is not making any sense. If the voice of the people is the voice of God, and you want to silence the people with crazy legislations how do you want to hear Gods voice?. #Freedomofexpression |
