No Going Back On Social Media Regulation, Says FG by valentineuwakwe(m): 6:22am On Nov 15, 2019 |
The Federal Government says it will not rescind its decision to regulate social media. The Minister of Information and Culture, Lai Mohammed , said this on Thursday during a courtesy call on him by the Guild of Corporate Online Publishers in Abuja . Mohammed said , “ Let me say, straight on , that the intense debate that has been generated by our announcement is a welcome development . “ The fear of stifling free speech or muzzling the media is totally unfounded . We have no such plan. As we speak , people are on the social media criticizing the administration. We have no problem with that . “ But our concern has to do with the abuse of the social media by those who are bent on spreading fake news and hate speech , and the dangers inherent in that for our national peace and unity . No responsible government will sit by and allow fake news and hate speech to dominate its media space because of the capacity of this menace to exploit our national fault lines to set us against each other and trigger a national conflagration .” source: https://punchng.com/no-going-back-on-social-media-regulation-says-fg/

Yes, sore losers who have been on the internet abusing Hausa/Fulani since they lost two consecutive elections should be jailed. Those that did the fake wedding invitation of Buhari and the Minister of Humanitarian Affairs should be jailed. Those that wished Buhari death need not be jailed again because they are already dying one by one. So, if you jail them, they will die in prison and become government's corpse. |
