DeOTR:

This new law will actually hasten Rwanda in Nigeria. I see what they are doing, but it will be too late if they don't retrace their steps. You can't render people hopeless and still take away their rights to complain. It will backfire.

jaxxy:


The truth is social media is probably the only/major avenue, tool and platform for freedom of speech for citizens and they want to take that away. They want to turn Nigeria to China. There is no free speech in China. They will lock u up immediately. That’s what they want.

They forget Nigeria is a democracy.

ornicus:


Please explain how outlawing fake news and hate speech will usher in genocide.

Buhari and his devilish criminal gang are mad

J2381:
I was about asking him that question myself.

I still want to understand why many people oppose this laws.

Kendumazy:
Jonathan will just be laughing wherever he is. Below is what he said.

"The choice before Nigerians in the coming elections is simple: A
choice between going forward or going backwards; between the new
ways and the old ways; between freedom and repression; between a
record of visible achievements and beneficial reforms-and desperate
power-seekers with empty promises." Well, we put ourselves in this. Let's enjoy it!

It's the shirt seller again! Check my signature below for more details.

There is honestly a potential for abuse among our thin skinned politicians who jail activists for posts on Facebook.

My guy Jarus back in the day had a visit from sss and his nysc extended for writing an article on the then sokoto state governor.The man thought it was opposition politics

A person like Ganodollar, caught on tape collecting dollars could quickly get the reporters rounded up and hanged.

We however have a very very big problem with fake news. You can no longer even tell what is true as even traditional media outlets are partisan and get in on the act. Look at the nonsense Vanguard was publishing on Osinbajo

In the build up to the 2019 elections, fulani herdsmen became the ultimate boogeymen, able to materialise anywhere in the country, murder, rape and kidnap at will. Elections are over, and crimes are back to being done by locals.

Death penalty is madness, but we need regulation.

Take this from me; The bill doesn't hold water reason being that Nigerian political system is built on falsehood, tarnishing your opponents image to gather sympathy from gullible masses.

If eventually the bill comes alive, whom do you think that who be the first to break the law? Your guess is as good as mine.


Lie Muhammad or sehu sanni

I support the bill, I defintely know it won't affect my own people. We know the region where they raise kids with abuses and insults.

Na dem go suffer am pass.

Officialgarri:
Where there's no law, there is no order.

There's no going back on this bill.

If PDP ever comes to power in this life, they should reverse it

Godhatesodomy:



Fake News is dangerous. There is alot of fake news in America yet its coming from the government itself by Jewish mafias that employs black characters. There is more corruption coming from outside of Africa than within.

Wake up out your slumber

Can't these guys spend months discussing how to increase power generation in this country?

Just power

POWER

POWER

kid7soccer:
This country is finished

ornicus:


Power is really three parts
You have a generator that's power generation
The cable from generator to changeover that's transmission
From your distribution board through your house, that's distribution

Imagine your cable to the changeover is old and patched in multiple places. It rains you have to go out and fix, rat crosses cable, you have to go out and fix.

Our transmission network requires significant overhauling, but this is capital intensive. We are not using our full generation capacity because of the transmission issues. It is not about oil companies, who can actually make money selling lpfo so some power generating companies.

It is about large, long term investment in an unstable country.

Mtn and Co started making their money immediately.your returns on power investment can take decades.

Obj also effed up. His administration brought in billions in equipment that was left to rot at our ports.by now a lot of that stuff may be obsolete


Just a primer on our energy issues

bizhop01:
Buhari and his devilish criminal gang are mad

izzou:


Countries with worse economies than us have steady electricity

Is there nothing that can be done about it?

Overself:
We told them that Buhari is evil,did they hear?
Now see the result!
Zombie go get sense by force!!

ornicus:


Nothing a billon Dollars can’t fix. If we can get it, and if our fellow Nigerians will not steal it.

Also the same problem with deregulation. If I have he money to invest and I come into Nigerian and invest, I will not make my money back at the current energy rates. And Nigerians will resist raising energy cost ( chicken and egg issue - which comes first)

Also Nigerians have this weird idea that good service should be almost free. I am sure you saw all those absurd arguments on forcing down price of data. Some people are almost ready for us to go back to the days of nitel. That Barbary expressway already has its toll gates because it is a loan that has to be repaid. Let them complete it, start rolling and Nigerians will start screaming .

We need to raise prices to bring in serious investors. We also may need to re sell some of the discos, which were sold more on paddy paddy than on capacity

I remember I went for Power Nigeria exhibition at Landmark last year

When the IBEDC guy spoke about the power sectors, I started to realize we can't get steady power in donkey decades

Buhari is preparing for third term
In the process of trying to go for third term, Crisis will erupt there will be massive clamp down on people which will trigger division in the military and there will be a Coup. I saw young fair fair guy taking over from Buhari, the emergence of the Military will draw the eyes of the world a d then Nigeria will have no choice but to follow the part of disintegration.
This is what I saw
