We still don't need it simple

We don't need it.

We want to be able to malign any group, foment trouble and not be held responsible for our actions.

King44:
we are too docile in this country but if na pastor crest rape case stupid people won't stage protest, these law makers are daring us

If it is black lives matter that does not affect us you would see some idiots masturbating over it

Land tax bill and this bill are wrong, if this scale through grazing bill that has been kept there till we are docile about it would be passed

Its incredible how mumu-fied people have become?

Eyah stop wailing my child.. if you don't want social media or cyberspace regulated simply write your federal constituency office or Senatorial district office to hear your grievance if that isn't convenient mail your rep and Senators

Slowly and steadily they are stripping Nigerians off the freedoms they had before the unfortunate coming to power of their evil party from hell. Dammit we were just fine as we where why do they need to muzzle us if they are doing the right things? Only dictators and evil doers hate the light of truth shining upon them cos their soul radiates nothing but darkness.

is the madness their own or they borrowed it?

lomprico:
Nairaland should be ready to get banned!

Nairaland will be the main target, they can't allow free speech to thrive.

Ban pornography too

Great move, Nigeria is edging towards major disaster if we don't control our cyberspace from some wicked bloggers and inciteful ,fictitious ,Libelous post made by crazy people


Only in an unregulated lawless Nigerian Social Media space would a lady wake up and accuse a stranger of rape on her Twitter page, or a scammer clone your account and steal your pictures and start impersonating you to use your profile to beg people for money and scam people

Who is regulating govt propaganda? How much is d govt doing to protect it's citizens from foreign shylocks like DStv?

Meaning if I call Buhari a failure (which he is), they will arrest me?

Yes, he will appoint an extremist to head the commission that will determine calling him a failure is hate speech.

Lets be realistic here, there is nothing like social media bills in democratic system of government because by so doing the government is systematically taking away the freedom of speech from the masses such government is refers to as dictatorship, a good government learn from his critics and put in his best to work, instead of trying to silent voice of the people by setting up social media bills, I have observed every move of this current government they try to venture into everything we the common enjoy as a citizen in this country also trying to silent our voice when we speak out.

Who are the nigerians? Are they not represented in the Senate anymore? SR never cease to amaze me sometimes...

Do u no d senator representing ur senatorial district? Have u had d opportunity of interacting with him to tell him what u would want him to do for ur district?

SmartProf:
When asked whether the Senate’s plan had always been to pass the bill without considering public opinion, the source told SaharaReporters, “I am not sure about that, but they believe that Nigerians will accept it and move on the same way they have accepted the Broadcasting Code.”

My Verdict: These guys know that the worst Nigerians will always do is to complain for a maximum of 2days, once another national issue pops up, the previous will fade away and that's it. For e.g does anybody still talk about fuel increment again? Technically we have accepted it.

That's just the ugly reality. When I see how citizens protest against leaders in other countries and finally get their desire, I weep for Nigeria. We easily forget and we don't rise against the government,as if we are jazzed in this country. One day, revolution will solve it all.

Misinformation, social media fraud, fake news, inciteful social media post this are current problems the world is dealing with, having a legal framework on prosecuting crimes relating to online crimes is a good move


.

We already have laws against those, you can only fight lies with the truth, where things are unclear whoever controls the media now has the power to decide what the truth is.

Now any news critical of the government will be branded as fake so they can fine and imprison people. With a society run my rabid Islamists it's not too unrealistic that anyone criticising their crazy laws will be branded as a peddler of fake news and prosecuted accordingly.

The bill isn't regulating criticism against Government, you are free to use any means to criticize a Government including TV, Newspaper and Social Media

Regulations of Social Media deal with abuse of the social media against citizens to citizens,

pls run away from revolution yopob..just an advise dont come and complain when u are shot by mistake by our happy trigger amy..pls southerners and ipob ignore him..we are use to their tricks.tinubu trying to use sowore to destabilize this stable govt

For your sake I hope this is a joke.

Officialgarri:
Thankfully, the Senate house comprises of both PDP, APC and other parties. Who will wailers now hold responsible?

Because your party APC is messing up you don't consider that APC is majority, and how that majority carries the vote

Miracle1991:
Yes,I love this. We must control these fake fake news especially from ipob miscreants.

i hope you are very rich and powerful if not this bill will be used against you in the future... How many of those senators obey the law... When we had COVID-19 out break, how many of them agreed to be tested at the airport even when the presidential task force gave a guideline... Think well

I am really concerned I don't give a f about the country anymore, now I am getting concerned for us as people, our stupidity and hypocrisy is getting worse by the day

Last time ordinary paster krest case, a case that most of those people criticising him or her were not witness to, something that happened in maybe 90s or early 2000 some idiots organised people to stage protest

Black lives matters, we joined them and police are killing people everyday like we operate a slaughter house as a country, no protest just rants

Where are those useless hungry lawyers who gathered people to protest krest case last time?.

Now this case that might send many of us to jail unnecessary and silence us finally till Nigeria turns Pakistan is being taken as something that is not serious

We may be under a particular curse of stupidly if a proper check is done
